1
00:07:55,059 --> 00:07:57,812
He was the most extraordinary man I ever knew.

2
00:07:58,020 --> 00:08:00,148
Did you know him well?

3
00:08:00,565 --> 00:08:01,983
I knew him.

4
00:08:03,526 --> 00:08:06,070
<i>Well, nil nisi bonum.</i>

5
00:08:06,362 --> 00:08:08,281
But did he really deserve...

6
00:08:08,489 --> 00:08:10,783
...a place in here?

7
00:08:25,673 --> 00:08:28,593
Lord Allenby, could you give
a few words about Lawrence?

8
00:08:28,843 --> 00:08:30,845
What, more words?

9
00:08:32,597 --> 00:08:34,515
The revolt in the desert...

10
00:08:34,724 --> 00:08:38,394
...played a decisive part
in the Middle Eastern campaign.

11
00:08:38,686 --> 00:08:41,397
Yes, sir, but about Colonel Lawrence himself.

12
00:08:42,190 --> 00:08:46,027
No, no. I didn't know him well, you know.

13
00:08:49,071 --> 00:08:52,241
Mr. Bentley, you know as much
about Lawrence as anybody.

14
00:08:52,450 --> 00:08:55,203
Yes, it was my privilege to know him.

15
00:08:55,453 --> 00:08:58,080
And to make him known to the world.

16
00:08:58,372 --> 00:09:02,710
He was a poet, a scholar and a mighty warrior.

17
00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:04,045
Thank you.

18
00:09:04,212 --> 00:09:08,925
He was also the most shameless
exhibitionist since Barnum and Bailey.

19
00:09:09,342 --> 00:09:11,052
You, sir. Who are you?

20
00:09:11,344 --> 00:09:13,554
My name is Jackson Bentley.

21
00:09:14,055 --> 00:09:17,934
I overheard your last remark
and take the gravest exception.

22
00:09:18,226 --> 00:09:20,436
- He was a great man.
- Did you know him?

23
00:09:20,728 --> 00:09:22,730
No, I can't claim to have known him.

24
00:09:22,897 --> 00:09:25,399
I had the honour to shake his hand in Damascus.

25
00:09:25,650 --> 00:09:27,276
Knew him? I never knew him.

26
00:09:27,568 --> 00:09:30,947
He had some minor function on my staff in Cairo.

27
00:09:50,758 --> 00:09:52,301
Michael George Hartley...

28
00:09:52,593 --> 00:09:55,888
...this is a nasty, dark little room.

29
00:09:56,097 --> 00:09:57,139
That's right.

30
00:09:57,431 --> 00:09:59,600
We are not happy in it.

31
00:09:59,809 --> 00:10:03,688
I am. It's better than a nasty, dark little trench.

32
00:10:03,938 --> 00:10:07,316
- Then you're a big noble fellow.
- That's right.

33
00:10:08,776 --> 00:10:12,530
Here is William Potter with my newspaper.

34
00:10:12,947 --> 00:10:15,283
- Here you are, tosh.
- Thanks.

35
00:10:17,410 --> 00:10:20,454
Would you care for one of
Corporal Hartley's cigarettes?

36
00:10:21,998 --> 00:10:24,292
- Is it there?
- Of course.

37
00:10:24,500 --> 00:10:26,127
Headlines.

38
00:10:26,627 --> 00:10:29,839
But I bet it isn't mentioned in the <i>Times.</i>

39
00:10:30,464 --> 00:10:34,844
"Bedouin tribes attack Turkish stronghold."

40
00:10:35,803 --> 00:10:39,473
I bet that no one in this
headquarters even knows it happened.

41
00:10:39,724 --> 00:10:43,436
Or would care if it did.
Allow me to ignite your cigarette.

42
00:10:45,980 --> 00:10:47,982
- Mr. Lawrence?
- Yes.

43
00:10:48,190 --> 00:10:50,484
- Flimsy, sir.
- Thank you.

44
00:10:57,491 --> 00:11:00,828
You'll do that once too often.
It's only flesh and blood.

45
00:11:01,078 --> 00:11:03,831
Michael George Hartley, you're a philosopher.

46
00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:05,958
And you're balmy!

47
00:11:20,056 --> 00:11:23,017
- It damn well hurts!
- Certainly, it hurts.

48
00:11:23,517 --> 00:11:25,102
What's the trick, then?

49
00:11:25,353 --> 00:11:29,398
The trick, William Potter,
is not minding that it hurts.

50
00:11:29,690 --> 00:11:32,610
By the way, if Captain Gibbon
should enquire for me...

51
00:11:32,860 --> 00:11:36,197
...tell him I've gone for a chat with the general.

52
00:11:37,907 --> 00:11:40,117
- He's balmy.
- He's all right.

53
00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:47,541
Lawrence.

54
00:11:48,376 --> 00:11:49,543
Yes?

55
00:11:49,794 --> 00:11:51,587
You're supposed to be...

56
00:11:52,004 --> 00:11:54,382
Do you usually wear your cap in the mess?

57
00:11:55,257 --> 00:11:56,300
Always.

58
00:11:56,550 --> 00:11:58,719
You should be on duty. Where are you going?

59
00:11:59,011 --> 00:12:01,389
Mustn't talk shop, Freddie, not in the mess.

60
00:12:01,597 --> 00:12:03,557
I'm going for a powwow with the general.

61
00:12:03,766 --> 00:12:07,269
I'm not asking as your superior,
but as the secretary of this mess.

62
00:12:07,561 --> 00:12:09,939
We don't want chaps in here who should be on duty.

63
00:12:10,231 --> 00:12:11,649
Where are you going?

64
00:12:14,568 --> 00:12:16,404
I must say, Lawrence!

65
00:12:16,612 --> 00:12:19,448
- Sorry.
- You're a clown, Lawrence.

66
00:12:19,740 --> 00:12:23,077
Ah, well, we can't all be lion tamers.

67
00:12:25,746 --> 00:12:26,747
Sorry.

68
00:12:27,581 --> 00:12:29,583
It's an intrigue, Dryden.

69
00:12:29,750 --> 00:12:33,045
I do not propose to let
an overweening, crass lieutenant...

70
00:12:33,254 --> 00:12:36,757
...thumb his nose at his commander
and get away with it.

71
00:12:37,049 --> 00:12:40,261
It doesn't sound as though
he'd be any great loss, sir.

72
00:12:40,678 --> 00:12:43,931
Don't try that, Dryden. There's a principle involved.

73
00:12:44,140 --> 00:12:45,641
There is, indeed.

74
00:12:45,933 --> 00:12:47,810
He's of no use here in Cairo.

75
00:12:48,102 --> 00:12:51,147
He might be in Arabia. He knows his stuff, sir.

76
00:12:51,439 --> 00:12:52,940
Knows the books, you mean.

77
00:12:53,107 --> 00:12:56,277
I've already sent out
Colonel Brighton, who's a soldier.

78
00:12:56,444 --> 00:12:59,280
If Brighton thinks we should send some arms, we will.

79
00:13:01,490 --> 00:13:03,117
Well, what more do you want?

80
00:13:03,325 --> 00:13:06,454
That there would be no question
of Lieutenant Lawrence...

81
00:13:06,662 --> 00:13:08,622
...giving military advice.

82
00:13:08,831 --> 00:13:10,791
By God, I should hope not.

83
00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:15,546
It's just that the Arab Bureau would
like its own man on the spot to...

84
00:13:15,713 --> 00:13:16,797
To what?

85
00:13:17,089 --> 00:13:19,508
To make our own appraisal of the situation.

86
00:13:19,884 --> 00:13:23,804
I'll tell you, it's my considered
opinion and that of my staff...

87
00:13:24,096 --> 00:13:26,849
...that time spent on the Bedouin
will be time wasted.

88
00:13:27,141 --> 00:13:29,477
They're a nation of sheep-stealers.

89
00:13:29,685 --> 00:13:32,605
They did attack Medina.

90
00:13:32,813 --> 00:13:35,149
And the Turks made mincemeat of them.

91
00:13:35,399 --> 00:13:36,734
We don't know that.

92
00:13:37,151 --> 00:13:41,489
We know that they didn't take it.
A storm in a teacup, a sideshow.

93
00:13:42,156 --> 00:13:46,160
In my opinion, this whole theatre
of operations is a sideshow.

94
00:13:46,619 --> 00:13:49,747
The real war's being fought against
Germans, not Turks.

95
00:13:49,997 --> 00:13:52,833
Not here, but on the Western front in the trenches.

96
00:13:53,042 --> 00:13:55,503
Your Bedouin Army, or whatever it calls itself...

97
00:13:55,669 --> 00:13:58,339
...would be a sideshow of a sideshow.

98
00:13:58,547 --> 00:14:01,175
Big things have small beginnings, sir.

99
00:14:02,551 --> 00:14:05,638
Does the Arab Bureau want a big thing in Arabia?

100
00:14:05,846 --> 00:14:10,351
Does the bureau think they'll sit down
under us when this war is over?

101
00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:15,523
The bureau thinks the job of
the moment, sir, is to win the war.

102
00:14:16,148 --> 00:14:18,400
Don't tell me my duty, Mr. Dryden.

103
00:14:19,276 --> 00:14:21,362
- Lawrence, sir.
- Send him in.

104
00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:24,448
Good morning, sir.

105
00:14:24,698 --> 00:14:26,158
Salute.

106
00:14:28,285 --> 00:14:31,705
If you're insubordinate,
I shall put you under arrest.

107
00:14:31,914 --> 00:14:33,707
- It's my manner.
- Your what?

108
00:14:33,916 --> 00:14:36,794
My manner. It looks insubordinate, but it isn't.

109
00:14:37,211 --> 00:14:41,048
I can't make out whether you're
bad-mannered or just half-witted.

110
00:14:41,382 --> 00:14:44,260
- I have the same problem, sir.
- Shut up.

111
00:14:44,552 --> 00:14:47,888
The Arab Bureau thinks you
would be of use to them in Arabia.

112
00:14:48,222 --> 00:14:49,807
Why, I can't imagine.

113
00:14:50,057 --> 00:14:52,476
You can't perform your present duties properly.

114
00:14:53,310 --> 00:14:57,606
"I cannot fiddle, but I can make
a great state from a little city."

115
00:14:57,815 --> 00:15:00,067
- What?
- Themistocles, sir.

116
00:15:00,276 --> 00:15:03,904
- A Greek philosopher.
- I know you've been well-educated.

117
00:15:04,113 --> 00:15:06,407
It says so in your dossier.

118
00:15:08,742 --> 00:15:11,745
You're the kind of creature I can't stand, Lawrence.

119
00:15:13,956 --> 00:15:16,208
But I suppose I could be wrong.

120
00:15:16,792 --> 00:15:19,587
All right, Dryden. You can have him for six weeks.

121
00:15:19,753 --> 00:15:23,257
Who knows? It might even make a man of him. Come in!

122
00:15:25,259 --> 00:15:26,594
Yes, what is it?

123
00:15:26,844 --> 00:15:29,597
The convoy will be in Port Said tomorrow night.

124
00:15:29,805 --> 00:15:31,807
- Is that certain?
- Yes, sir.

125
00:15:32,933 --> 00:15:35,102
There doesn't seem to be any artillery.

126
00:15:35,311 --> 00:15:38,105
But there must be artillery!

127
00:15:40,858 --> 00:15:44,361
Sir, this is something of an expedition.

128
00:15:44,612 --> 00:15:48,782
He has to get to Yenbo, find a guide,
find the Arabs and then get back.

129
00:15:49,033 --> 00:15:51,619
He can't do that in six weeks.

130
00:15:52,286 --> 00:15:54,955
- Two months, then.
- Three.

131
00:15:55,456 --> 00:15:59,543
All right, three. Now, will you
let me do some work, Mr. Dryden?

132
00:15:59,793 --> 00:16:01,462
Thank you, sir.

133
00:16:03,964 --> 00:16:07,301
I'd like to say, sir, that I am grateful for this.

134
00:16:07,509 --> 00:16:09,386
Shut up and get out.

135
00:16:15,476 --> 00:16:16,852
Sir?

136
00:16:22,483 --> 00:16:25,778
How can I fight a bloody war
without bloody artillery?

137
00:16:26,779 --> 00:16:30,658
- How did you do it?
- Might better ask why I bothered to.

138
00:16:30,908 --> 00:16:34,411
- Because I'm the man for the job.
- I just wonder about that.

139
00:16:34,662 --> 00:16:37,539
Of course I am. What is the job, by the way?

140
00:16:37,831 --> 00:16:39,500
Find Prince Feisal.

141
00:16:39,792 --> 00:16:41,585
Good. And when I've found him?

142
00:16:43,545 --> 00:16:45,839
Find out what kind of a man he is.

143
00:16:46,090 --> 00:16:49,843
Find out what his intentions are.
Not his immediate intentions.

144
00:16:50,010 --> 00:16:52,554
That is Colonel Brighton's business, not yours.

145
00:16:52,846 --> 00:16:57,101
I mean, his intentions in Arabia altogether.

146
00:17:00,354 --> 00:17:01,897
That's new.

147
00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:04,858
Where are they now?

148
00:17:05,025 --> 00:17:07,945
Anywhere within 300 miles of Medina.

149
00:17:08,195 --> 00:17:09,697
They're Hashemite Bedouins.

150
00:17:09,905 --> 00:17:13,575
They can cross 60 miles of desert in a day.

151
00:17:13,867 --> 00:17:15,828
Thanks. This is going to be fun.

152
00:17:16,537 --> 00:17:20,249
Lawrence, only two kinds of creature
get fun in the desert:

153
00:17:20,541 --> 00:17:24,044
Bedouins and gods,
and you're neither. Take it from me.

154
00:17:24,253 --> 00:17:27,548
For ordinary men, it's a burning fiery furnace.

155
00:17:27,840 --> 00:17:31,552
No, Dryden. It's going to be fun.

156
00:17:35,347 --> 00:17:38,642
It is recognised that you have a funny sense of fun.

157
00:18:54,635 --> 00:18:56,428
Here you may drink.

158
00:19:00,140 --> 00:19:01,433
One cup.

159
00:19:09,191 --> 00:19:10,818
You do not drink?

160
00:19:11,443 --> 00:19:12,486
No.

161
00:19:13,946 --> 00:19:15,572
I'll drink when you do.

162
00:19:16,490 --> 00:19:17,574
I am Bed...

163
00:21:17,986 --> 00:21:22,199
Truly, now, you are a British officer?

164
00:21:22,449 --> 00:21:23,825
Yes.

165
00:21:24,576 --> 00:21:26,119
From Cairo?

166
00:21:26,578 --> 00:21:27,996
Yes.

167
00:21:28,622 --> 00:21:31,792
- You did not ride from Cairo?
- No.

168
00:21:32,084 --> 00:21:35,963
Thank heaven. It's 900 miles. I came by boat.

169
00:21:36,463 --> 00:21:38,006
And before?

170
00:21:38,632 --> 00:21:41,134
From Britain?

171
00:21:41,468 --> 00:21:42,803
Yes.

172
00:21:44,137 --> 00:21:45,514
Truly?

173
00:21:46,014 --> 00:21:47,474
From Oxfordshire.

174
00:21:49,476 --> 00:21:50,978
Is that a desert country?

175
00:21:51,979 --> 00:21:56,316
No. A fat country. Fat people.

176
00:21:57,901 --> 00:21:59,111
You are not fat?

177
00:21:59,820 --> 00:22:00,988
No.

178
00:22:02,489 --> 00:22:04,116
I'm different.

179
00:22:32,144 --> 00:22:33,520
Here...

180
00:22:34,271 --> 00:22:35,772
...take it.

181
00:22:36,648 --> 00:22:40,068
First I take you to Lord Feisal,
then you give it to me.

182
00:22:40,360 --> 00:22:41,862
Take it now.

183
00:23:00,422 --> 00:23:02,049
Bedu food.

184
00:23:17,397 --> 00:23:18,732
Good.

185
00:23:18,982 --> 00:23:20,233
More?

186
00:24:09,116 --> 00:24:11,284
- Bedu.
- Where?

187
00:24:32,264 --> 00:24:34,850
From here to Lord Feisal's camp is Harith country.

188
00:24:35,142 --> 00:24:36,309
Yes, I know.

189
00:24:36,518 --> 00:24:38,478
- I am not Harith.
- No.

190
00:24:38,687 --> 00:24:41,314
Hazimi, of the Beni Salem.

191
00:25:17,601 --> 00:25:21,021
Put the right foot in tight.
Lock it with your left foot.

192
00:25:21,229 --> 00:25:22,856
When you are ready to go...

193
00:25:23,064 --> 00:25:26,193
...hit her on the shoulder and say, "Hut-hut-hut."

194
00:25:43,835 --> 00:25:47,464
Today will be difficult, but tomorrow, good riding.

195
00:26:04,564 --> 00:26:08,068
I think we reach Masturah Well tomorrow. Yes.

196
00:26:08,235 --> 00:26:11,905
And from Masturah Well to
Lord Feisal's camp, one day more.

197
00:26:12,113 --> 00:26:13,281
Now!

198
00:27:13,300 --> 00:27:14,634
Good?

199
00:27:14,843 --> 00:27:16,678
It's all right.

200
00:27:17,804 --> 00:27:20,015
This is a Harith well.

201
00:27:20,473 --> 00:27:22,976
The Harith are a dirty people.

202
00:28:44,557 --> 00:28:45,934
Turks?

203
00:29:12,419 --> 00:29:13,586
Bed...

204
00:30:00,091 --> 00:30:01,843
Who is he?

205
00:30:55,522 --> 00:30:57,148
He is dead.

206
00:30:57,524 --> 00:30:59,025
Yes.

207
00:31:00,276 --> 00:31:01,361
Why?

208
00:31:04,239 --> 00:31:05,698
This is my well.

209
00:31:07,283 --> 00:31:08,910
I have drunk from it.

210
00:31:09,869 --> 00:31:11,663
You are welcome.

211
00:31:13,373 --> 00:31:14,707
He was my friend.

212
00:31:14,916 --> 00:31:17,752
- That?
- Yes, that.

213
00:31:27,887 --> 00:31:31,099
- This pistol yours?
- No, his.

214
00:31:47,782 --> 00:31:49,075
His?

215
00:31:49,701 --> 00:31:50,910
Mine.

216
00:31:51,578 --> 00:31:53,413
Then I will use it.

217
00:32:01,296 --> 00:32:03,590
Your friend...

218
00:32:05,592 --> 00:32:07,802
...was a Hazimi of the Beni Salem.

219
00:32:08,094 --> 00:32:09,470
I know.

220
00:32:17,020 --> 00:32:18,313
I am Ali ibn el Kharish.

221
00:32:20,607 --> 00:32:21,941
I have heard of you.

222
00:32:23,651 --> 00:32:25,320
So...

223
00:32:27,655 --> 00:32:29,532
...what was a Hazimi doing here?

224
00:32:29,782 --> 00:32:33,286
He was taking me to help Prince Feisal.

225
00:32:33,786 --> 00:32:37,248
- You've been sent from Cairo.
- Yes.

226
00:32:37,749 --> 00:32:41,169
I have been in Cairo for my schooling.

227
00:32:42,128 --> 00:32:44,505
I can both read and write.

228
00:32:48,301 --> 00:32:52,263
My Lord Feisal already has an Englishman.

229
00:32:52,680 --> 00:32:54,307
What is your name?

230
00:32:55,266 --> 00:32:57,852
My name is for my friends.

231
00:33:03,316 --> 00:33:05,401
None of my friends is a murderer.

232
00:33:07,320 --> 00:33:09,364
You are angry, English.

233
00:33:18,164 --> 00:33:19,999
He was nothing.

234
00:33:20,291 --> 00:33:22,043
The well is everything.

235
00:33:23,086 --> 00:33:26,005
The Hazimi may not drink at our wells.

236
00:33:26,297 --> 00:33:27,882
He knew that.

237
00:33:30,218 --> 00:33:31,427
<i>Salaam.</i>

238
00:33:33,012 --> 00:33:34,681
Sherif Ali.

239
00:33:35,014 --> 00:33:38,101
So long as the Arabs fight tribe against tribe...

240
00:33:38,351 --> 00:33:40,853
...so long will they be a little people...

241
00:33:41,104 --> 00:33:42,522
...a silly people-

242
00:33:43,022 --> 00:33:47,193
Greedy, barbarous and cruel, as you are.

243
00:34:01,332 --> 00:34:02,375
Come.

244
00:34:03,418 --> 00:34:05,044
I will take you to Feisal.

245
00:34:05,211 --> 00:34:07,338
I do not want your company, sherif.

246
00:34:07,547 --> 00:34:10,883
Wadi Safra is another day from here.

247
00:34:11,217 --> 00:34:14,220
You will not find it, and you will die.

248
00:34:14,971 --> 00:34:18,391
I Will find it With this.

249
00:34:26,983 --> 00:34:28,985
Good army compass.

250
00:34:29,569 --> 00:34:31,487
How if I take it?

251
00:34:31,904 --> 00:34:33,239
Then you would be a thief.

252
00:34:34,407 --> 00:34:35,742
Have you no fear, English?

253
00:34:36,659 --> 00:34:39,245
My fear is my concern.

254
00:34:39,746 --> 00:34:41,080
Truly.

255
00:34:45,084 --> 00:34:47,128
God be with you, English.

256
00:36:26,394 --> 00:36:28,187
Hey, you!

257
00:36:46,581 --> 00:36:49,709
- I've been waiting for you.
- Did you know I was coming?

258
00:36:50,001 --> 00:36:52,211
I knew someone was coming. Feisal told me.

259
00:36:52,503 --> 00:36:53,880
How did he know?

260
00:36:54,088 --> 00:36:57,008
Not much happens within 50 miles
of Feisal that he doesn't know.

261
00:36:57,216 --> 00:36:59,260
I'll give him that. No escort?

262
00:36:59,510 --> 00:37:02,013
My guide was killed at the Masturah Well.

263
00:37:02,221 --> 00:37:05,099
- Turks?
- No, an Arab.

264
00:37:05,391 --> 00:37:07,810
Bloody savages.

265
00:37:09,562 --> 00:37:12,648
- This is Wadi Safra, isn't it?
- Yes, they're over there.

266
00:37:12,899 --> 00:37:15,443
Just a minute. What's your name and who sent you?

267
00:37:15,735 --> 00:37:19,739
Lawrence. I've been seconded to the Arab Bureau.

268
00:37:22,408 --> 00:37:24,744
What are you to do for the Arab Bureau?

269
00:37:24,911 --> 00:37:29,916
Well, it's rather vague, sir.
I'm to appreciate the situation.

270
00:37:30,625 --> 00:37:34,545
Well, that won't be difficult.
The situation's bloody awful.

271
00:37:34,754 --> 00:37:37,924
Their morale, if they ever had any, which I doubt...

272
00:37:38,132 --> 00:37:42,136
...the Turks knocked out of them
in front of Medina, with howitzers.

273
00:37:42,428 --> 00:37:44,764
They're fading away by dozens every night.

274
00:37:45,056 --> 00:37:46,641
What I want to say is this:

275
00:37:46,933 --> 00:37:49,560
Wherever you are and whoever you are with...

276
00:37:49,769 --> 00:37:51,604
...you're a British officer. Here's an order.

277
00:37:51,812 --> 00:37:55,608
When we get into that camp,
you're to keep your mouth shut.

278
00:37:55,775 --> 00:37:59,779
- Do you understand what I'm saying?
- I understand what you're saying.

279
00:37:59,946 --> 00:38:02,865
You'll make your appreciation and get back to--

280
00:38:05,451 --> 00:38:07,286
Oh, my God.

281
00:38:07,954 --> 00:38:09,789
Not again.

282
00:38:38,651 --> 00:38:41,821
I've told him! God knows I've told him.

283
00:38:42,029 --> 00:38:45,199
"Move South," I've said. "You're still in range."

284
00:38:47,159 --> 00:38:50,663
They simply will not understand
what modern weapons do!

285
00:39:17,189 --> 00:39:20,568
Stand and fight. Stand and fight.

286
00:39:25,698 --> 00:39:27,158
Fire back at them.

287
00:40:39,146 --> 00:40:42,274
- Who are you?
- Lieutenant Lawrence, sir.

288
00:40:42,525 --> 00:40:44,235
Seconded to the Arab Bureau.

289
00:40:44,443 --> 00:40:47,738
This is a bloody mess, sir. We'll have to move south.

290
00:40:47,947 --> 00:40:50,324
Yes, colonel, 50 miles south.

291
00:40:50,616 --> 00:40:53,452
You were right and I was wrong.

292
00:40:53,744 --> 00:40:55,788
We must take some thought for the wounded.

293
00:40:56,038 --> 00:40:59,291
- We can take care of them at Yenbo.
- If they can get to Yenbo.

294
00:40:59,500 --> 00:41:01,043
They can hardly come with us.

295
00:41:01,293 --> 00:41:05,631
No. They must try to reach Yenbo. Lieutenant...?

296
00:41:06,465 --> 00:41:07,675
Lawrence.

297
00:41:07,967 --> 00:41:10,344
You understand, Lieutenant Lawrence...

298
00:41:10,553 --> 00:41:15,641
...my people are unused to explosives and machines.

299
00:41:16,183 --> 00:41:20,146
First the guns, and now this.

300
00:42:14,742 --> 00:42:16,035
Cigarette?

301
00:42:16,243 --> 00:42:17,703
I'm sorry.

302
00:42:28,422 --> 00:42:30,382
Cigarette, Your Excellency?

303
00:42:31,258 --> 00:42:32,593
Umph off.

304
00:42:33,427 --> 00:42:36,263
Please, Your Excellency. Just one for two?

305
00:42:53,948 --> 00:42:55,115
Hold it, Jenkins!

306
00:42:59,453 --> 00:43:00,913
Jenkins!

307
00:43:10,297 --> 00:43:11,924
Lawrence?

308
00:43:14,301 --> 00:43:15,678
You have no servant.

309
00:43:15,928 --> 00:43:18,430
- I don't need a servant.
- No?

310
00:43:18,681 --> 00:43:22,434
We can do everything. Light fires,
cook food, wash clothes.

311
00:43:22,643 --> 00:43:24,645
- Yes, everything.
- I don't doubt it.

312
00:43:24,937 --> 00:43:27,982
- It will be very nice for you.
- I can't afford it.

313
00:43:51,130 --> 00:43:55,509
Recite, then, as much of the Koran
as may be easy to you.

314
00:43:55,801 --> 00:43:59,471
God knoweth that there be some among you sick...

315
00:44:00,347 --> 00:44:05,728
...while others travel through the
Earth in quest for the bounties of God.

316
00:44:07,062 --> 00:44:11,317
Others do battle in his cause.

317
00:44:11,525 --> 00:44:15,863
Recite, therefore, as much as may be easy.

318
00:44:16,488 --> 00:44:19,325
And observe the prayers.

319
00:44:20,451 --> 00:44:25,956
This will be best and richest in the recompense.

320
00:44:27,082 --> 00:44:31,003
Seek ye the forgiveness of God.

321
00:44:31,754 --> 00:44:36,842
Verily, God is forgiving, merciful-

322
00:44:37,051 --> 00:44:38,510
Greetings, Ali.

323
00:44:38,677 --> 00:44:40,512
- My lord.
- Sherif Ali.

324
00:44:40,721 --> 00:44:44,975
Lieutenant Lawrence, you have met
Sherif Ali, I think.

325
00:44:45,851 --> 00:44:47,686
Yes, my lord.

326
00:44:50,189 --> 00:44:52,483
And now, Selim, "The Brightness."

327
00:44:52,691 --> 00:44:55,027
"By the noonday brightness...

328
00:44:55,235 --> 00:44:57,363
...and by the night when it darkeneth...

329
00:44:57,613 --> 00:45:00,032
...thy Lord hath not forsaken thee...

330
00:45:00,282 --> 00:45:02,701
...neither hath He been displeased.

331
00:45:02,993 --> 00:45:07,247
And surely the future shall be better
for thee than the past."

332
00:45:07,539 --> 00:45:11,043
"And in the end shall your Lord be
bounteous to thee...

333
00:45:11,210 --> 00:45:13,545
...and thou be satisfied."

334
00:45:15,506 --> 00:45:16,882
$0?

335
00:45:18,801 --> 00:45:20,052
Yes, colonel.

336
00:45:20,427 --> 00:45:24,139
- I want a decision, sir.
- You want me to fall back on Yenbo.

337
00:45:24,390 --> 00:45:27,059
Well, you're not doing much good here, sir.

338
00:45:27,267 --> 00:45:31,230
I'm sorry to rub it in, sir,
but we can't supply you here.

339
00:45:31,438 --> 00:45:33,399
You could supply us through Aqaba!

340
00:45:33,816 --> 00:45:35,401
Aqaba!

341
00:45:36,235 --> 00:45:38,904
If you can get a hold of Aqaba, we can supply you.

342
00:45:39,071 --> 00:45:41,073
- But you can't!
- You could.

343
00:45:41,573 --> 00:45:44,159
You mean, the navy?

344
00:45:45,077 --> 00:45:48,414
The Turks have 12-inch guns at Aqaba, sir.

345
00:45:48,622 --> 00:45:50,624
Can you imagine what that means?

346
00:45:50,916 --> 00:45:52,584
Yes, I can imagine.

347
00:45:52,793 --> 00:45:57,047
Put that out of your mind, sir.
The navy's got other things to do.

348
00:45:57,256 --> 00:45:59,758
Oh, yes. Protecting the Suez Canal.

349
00:46:00,551 --> 00:46:04,179
The one essential sector of this front
is and must be the canal.

350
00:46:04,430 --> 00:46:06,265
You can see that, sir, surely.

351
00:46:06,432 --> 00:46:09,435
I see that the canal is
an essential British interest.

352
00:46:09,601 --> 00:46:11,645
It is of little consequence to us.

353
00:46:12,146 --> 00:46:14,189
I must ask you not to speak like that.

354
00:46:14,440 --> 00:46:17,109
British and Arab interests are one and the same.

355
00:46:18,444 --> 00:46:20,112
Possibly.

356
00:46:21,780 --> 00:46:24,074
Upon my word, sir, you're ungrateful.

357
00:46:24,283 --> 00:46:26,952
Fall back on Yenbo and we will give you equipment.

358
00:46:27,119 --> 00:46:29,329
Give you arms, advice, training, everything.

359
00:46:29,621 --> 00:46:32,458
- Guns?
- A modern rifle for every man.

360
00:46:32,708 --> 00:46:35,627
No. Guns. Artillery.

361
00:46:35,836 --> 00:46:39,131
Guns like the Turkish guns at Medina.

362
00:46:39,298 --> 00:46:42,384
Yes, give us guns and keep the training.

363
00:46:42,634 --> 00:46:46,305
Your men need training far more than guns, sir.

364
00:46:46,597 --> 00:46:48,223
English will teach Bedu to fight?

365
00:46:48,474 --> 00:46:52,603
We will teach them, Sherif Ali,
to fight a modern mechanised army.

366
00:46:54,229 --> 00:46:58,358
Yes, lieutenant? What do you think about Yenbo?

367
00:47:02,196 --> 00:47:05,032
I think it is far from Damascus.

368
00:47:05,324 --> 00:47:08,660
We'll have you in Damascus, sir. Never fear.

369
00:47:08,911 --> 00:47:11,872
Have you been in Damascus, Mr. Lawrence?

370
00:47:12,498 --> 00:47:13,874
Yes, my lord.

371
00:47:14,917 --> 00:47:16,543
It is beautiful, is it not?

372
00:47:16,835 --> 00:47:18,504
- Very.
- That will do, Lawrence.

373
00:47:18,754 --> 00:47:22,841
Dreaming won't get you to Damascus,
but discipline will.

374
00:47:23,133 --> 00:47:28,180
Look, Great Britain is a small
country, much smaller than yours.

375
00:47:28,388 --> 00:47:30,682
Small population compared with some.

376
00:47:30,891 --> 00:47:34,061
It's small, but it's great. And why?

377
00:47:34,353 --> 00:47:37,189
- Because it has guns.
- Because it has discipline.

378
00:47:37,397 --> 00:47:39,691
Because it has a navy, because of this...

379
00:47:39,858 --> 00:47:41,568
...the English go where they please...

380
00:47:41,860 --> 00:47:44,404
...and strike where they please.
This makes them great.

381
00:47:44,696 --> 00:47:46,782
- Right.
- Mr. Lawrence, that will do!

382
00:47:47,032 --> 00:47:49,284
Lawrence is not your military adviser.

383
00:47:49,535 --> 00:47:51,662
But I would like to hear his opinion.

384
00:47:52,079 --> 00:47:54,289
Damn it! Who do you take your orders from?

385
00:47:54,540 --> 00:47:57,960
From Lord Feisal, in Feisal's tent.

386
00:47:58,210 --> 00:48:03,465
Old fool! Why turn from him to him?
They are master and man.

387
00:48:04,591 --> 00:48:08,262
My lord, I think...

388
00:48:09,221 --> 00:48:11,390
I think your book is right.

389
00:48:11,723 --> 00:48:16,103
The desert is an ocean in which no oar is dipped.

390
00:48:16,395 --> 00:48:18,397
On this ocean, the Bedu go where they please...

391
00:48:18,564 --> 00:48:20,065
...and strike where they please.

392
00:48:20,315 --> 00:48:22,568
This is the way the Bedu has always fought.

393
00:48:22,818 --> 00:48:25,737
You're famed through the world for fighting this way.

394
00:48:25,988 --> 00:48:28,115
And this is the way you should fight now.

395
00:48:28,407 --> 00:48:29,950
I don't know.

396
00:48:30,242 --> 00:48:32,452
I'm sorry, sir, but you're wrong.

397
00:48:33,078 --> 00:48:37,416
Fall back on Yenbo, the Arab Rising
becomes one unit in the British army.

398
00:48:37,624 --> 00:48:39,793
- What is this to you?
- You're a traitor.

399
00:48:40,085 --> 00:48:42,087
No, colonel.

400
00:48:42,337 --> 00:48:45,591
He is a young man, and young men are passionate.

401
00:48:45,841 --> 00:48:48,927
They must say their say.

402
00:48:50,095 --> 00:48:55,100
But wiser people must decide. I know you are right.

403
00:48:55,267 --> 00:48:57,811
Very well. When shall we move? The sooner the better.

404
00:48:58,103 --> 00:49:00,606
You'll lose another 50 men tonight.

405
00:49:02,649 --> 00:49:04,610
You tread heavily...

406
00:49:05,652 --> 00:49:08,322
...but you speak the truth.

407
00:49:09,948 --> 00:49:13,452
I will give you my answer tomorrow. And now...

408
00:49:13,827 --> 00:49:15,621
...it is late.

409
00:49:31,345 --> 00:49:33,847
Colonel Brighton means to put my men...

410
00:49:34,014 --> 00:49:36,892
...under European officers, does he not?

411
00:49:37,142 --> 00:49:39,019
In effect, my lord, yes.

412
00:49:39,311 --> 00:49:41,313
And I must do it...

413
00:49:41,897 --> 00:49:45,651
...because the Turks have European guns.

414
00:49:45,901 --> 00:49:48,570
But I fear to do it...

415
00:49:49,488 --> 00:49:51,698
...upon my soul I do.

416
00:49:53,659 --> 00:49:57,829
The English have a great hunger for desolate places.

417
00:49:58,038 --> 00:50:01,208
I fear they hunger for Arabia.

418
00:50:01,500 --> 00:50:03,377
Then you must deny it to them.

419
00:50:03,669 --> 00:50:07,214
You are an Englishman. Are you not loyal to England?

420
00:50:07,839 --> 00:50:10,801
To England and to other things.

421
00:50:11,051 --> 00:50:13,679
To England and Arabia both?

422
00:50:13,887 --> 00:50:15,681
And is that possible?

423
00:50:22,437 --> 00:50:26,692
I think you are another of these
desert-loving English.

424
00:50:26,900 --> 00:50:29,027
Doughty, Stanhope...

425
00:50:29,611 --> 00:50:31,947
...Gordon of Khartoum.

426
00:50:32,197 --> 00:50:34,449
No Arab loves the desert.

427
00:50:34,700 --> 00:50:39,705
We love water and green trees.
There is nothing in the desert.

428
00:50:40,747 --> 00:50:43,208
And no man needs nothing.

429
00:50:46,336 --> 00:50:49,923
Or is it that you think we are
something you can play with...

430
00:50:50,215 --> 00:50:53,760
...because we are a little people, a silly people...

431
00:50:54,052 --> 00:50:58,223
...greedy, barbarous and cruel?

432
00:50:58,557 --> 00:51:01,852
Or do you know, lieutenant,
in the Arab city of Cordoba...

433
00:51:02,060 --> 00:51:04,563
...were two miles of lighting in the streets...

434
00:51:04,771 --> 00:51:06,481
...when London was a village.

435
00:51:06,732 --> 00:51:09,568
Yes, you were great.

436
00:51:09,776 --> 00:51:11,903
Nine centuries ago.

437
00:51:12,154 --> 00:51:14,364
Time to be great again, my lord.

438
00:51:14,573 --> 00:51:17,868
Which is why my father made this war upon the Turks.

439
00:51:18,076 --> 00:51:21,872
My father, Mr. Lawrence, not the English.

440
00:51:23,081 --> 00:51:25,375
But my father is old...

441
00:51:26,376 --> 00:51:28,086
...and I...

442
00:51:29,755 --> 00:51:33,467
...I long for the vanished gardens of Cordoba.

443
00:51:35,302 --> 00:51:38,263
However, before the gardens must come the fighting.

444
00:51:39,598 --> 00:51:43,477
To be great again, it seems that we
need the English...

445
00:51:43,769 --> 00:51:44,770
...OI'...

446
00:51:45,020 --> 00:51:46,438
Ur?

447
00:51:46,938 --> 00:51:50,609
What no man can provide, Mr. Lawrence.

448
00:51:50,817 --> 00:51:53,278
We need a miracle.

449
00:54:58,588 --> 00:54:59,631
Aqaba.

450
00:55:03,134 --> 00:55:04,511
Aqaba.

451
00:55:05,345 --> 00:55:06,972
From the land.

452
00:55:07,973 --> 00:55:09,724
You are mad.

453
00:55:10,141 --> 00:55:14,521
To come to Aqaba by land we should
have to cross the Nefud Desert.

454
00:55:14,729 --> 00:55:15,981
That's right.

455
00:55:16,314 --> 00:55:18,483
The Nefud cannot be crossed.

456
00:55:18,692 --> 00:55:20,610
I'll cross it if you will.

457
00:55:20,819 --> 00:55:24,990
You? It takes more than a compass, Englishman.

458
00:55:25,198 --> 00:55:27,993
The Nefud is the worst place God created.

459
00:55:28,243 --> 00:55:32,247
I can't answer for the place. Only for myself.

460
00:55:32,664 --> 00:55:34,165
Fifty men?

461
00:55:34,416 --> 00:55:37,002
Fifty? Against Aqaba?

462
00:55:37,210 --> 00:55:39,629
If 50 men came out of the Nefud...

463
00:55:39,838 --> 00:55:42,882
.they would be 50 men other men might join.

464
00:55:43,675 --> 00:55:46,011
The Howeitat are there, I hear.

465
00:55:46,344 --> 00:55:49,347
The Howeitat are brigands.
They'll sell themselves to anyone.

466
00:55:49,639 --> 00:55:51,850
- Good fighters, though.
- Good--

467
00:55:52,851 --> 00:55:56,229
Yes. There are guns at Aqaba.

468
00:55:56,521 --> 00:56:00,650
They face the sea, Sherif Ali,
and cannot be turned around.

469
00:56:00,859 --> 00:56:04,571
From the landward side, there are no guns at Aqaba.

470
00:56:04,863 --> 00:56:09,868
With good reason. It cannot be
approached from the landward side.

471
00:56:10,076 --> 00:56:12,704
Certainly the Turks don't dream of it.

472
00:56:16,166 --> 00:56:18,168
Aqaba's over there.

473
00:56:20,712 --> 00:56:22,922
It's only a matter of going.

474
00:56:24,049 --> 00:56:26,384
You are mad.

475
00:56:33,558 --> 00:56:36,061
And where are you going, lieutenant?

476
00:56:37,395 --> 00:56:39,439
With 50 of my men.

477
00:56:41,066 --> 00:56:42,275
To work your miracle.

478
00:56:42,609 --> 00:56:46,905
Blasphemy is a bad beginning for such a journey.

479
00:56:47,614 --> 00:56:50,241
- Who told you?
- Ali did.

480
00:56:50,408 --> 00:56:52,118
Why not you?

481
00:56:53,745 --> 00:56:56,748
You are falling back from Yenbo, sir?

482
00:56:56,998 --> 00:56:59,250
Yes, I must.

483
00:56:59,501 --> 00:57:02,587
But I will spare these to you.

484
00:57:04,464 --> 00:57:07,592
Did Ali break confidence to tell me?

485
00:57:08,218 --> 00:57:12,138
Sherif Ali owes you his allegiance, my lord.

486
00:57:13,098 --> 00:57:15,600
Yet you did not tell Colonel Brighton.

487
00:57:15,809 --> 00:57:16,851
No.

488
00:57:28,738 --> 00:57:30,740
Since you do know...

489
00:57:31,241 --> 00:57:34,786
...we can claim to arrive
in the name of Feisal of Mecca.

490
00:57:35,161 --> 00:57:38,456
Yes, Lieutenant Lawrence, you may claim it.

491
00:57:39,290 --> 00:57:42,377
But in whose name do you ride?

492
01:00:10,942 --> 01:00:13,611
Sherif, I caught them. They have tracked us.

493
01:00:13,903 --> 01:00:16,114
They were here. I caught them.

494
01:00:16,281 --> 01:00:19,200
Why are you here? Boy!

495
01:00:19,450 --> 01:00:21,327
To serve Lord Lawrence, sherif.

496
01:00:21,619 --> 01:00:24,205
This is true, Lawrence. They do wish it.

497
01:00:24,455 --> 01:00:26,291
You have been tracking us.

498
01:00:26,958 --> 01:00:29,210
- You were told to stay.
- No, sherif.

499
01:00:29,460 --> 01:00:31,504
Our camel strayed. We followed her.

500
01:00:31,796 --> 01:00:34,674
She led us here to be Lord Lawrence's servants.

501
01:00:34,966 --> 01:00:37,552
- It is the will of Allah.
- Blasphemy.

502
01:00:37,802 --> 01:00:39,053
Don't do that.

503
01:00:39,512 --> 01:00:44,225
No, Lawrence, these are not servants
These are outcasts, parent-less.

504
01:00:44,851 --> 01:00:47,562
Be warned. They are not suitable.

505
01:00:47,812 --> 01:00:51,566
They sound very suitable.
You can ride with the baggage.

506
01:00:53,192 --> 01:00:56,654
These are not servants. These are worshippers.

507
01:01:00,658 --> 01:01:03,494
One shilling, every week?

508
01:01:03,703 --> 01:01:05,330
That is fair.

509
01:01:05,997 --> 01:01:07,332
- Each?
- No.

510
01:01:07,540 --> 01:01:09,167
- That is too much.
- All right.

511
01:01:17,759 --> 01:01:21,971
They will be lucky for you.
Allah favours the compassionate.

512
01:01:35,860 --> 01:01:37,612
There is the railway.

513
01:01:38,488 --> 01:01:41,407
And that is the desert.

514
01:01:42,867 --> 01:01:46,579
From here until the other side,
no water but what we carry.

515
01:01:46,788 --> 01:01:50,083
For the camels, no water at all.

516
01:01:50,708 --> 01:01:52,877
If the camels die...

517
01:01:54,212 --> 01:01:55,546
...we die.

518
01:01:56,506 --> 01:01:59,300
And in 20 days they will start to die.

519
01:02:04,806 --> 01:02:08,059
There's no time to waste, then, is there?

520
01:04:40,169 --> 01:04:41,879
I was thinking.

521
01:04:42,088 --> 01:04:43,798
You were drifting.

522
01:04:45,758 --> 01:04:49,428
Yes. It will not happen again.

523
01:04:49,720 --> 01:04:53,391
Be warned, you were drifting.

524
01:04:54,058 --> 01:04:56,102
It will not happen again.

525
01:05:58,247 --> 01:06:00,124
That water is wasted.

526
01:06:05,546 --> 01:06:07,840
From now on, we must travel by night...

527
01:06:08,132 --> 01:06:11,010
...and rest while it is too hot to travel.

528
01:06:11,302 --> 01:06:13,679
A few hours each day.

529
01:06:15,514 --> 01:06:17,475
Why don't we start now?

530
01:06:17,642 --> 01:06:20,353
No. We will rest now.

531
01:06:22,188 --> 01:06:23,314
Three hours.

532
01:06:23,564 --> 01:06:24,982
Fine.

533
01:06:25,566 --> 01:06:27,026
I'll wake you.

534
01:08:45,539 --> 01:08:47,124
Do we rest here?

535
01:08:47,333 --> 01:08:50,503
There is no rest now short of water.

536
01:08:50,795 --> 01:08:52,797
The other side of that.

537
01:08:53,964 --> 01:08:56,133
And how much of that is there?

538
01:08:56,467 --> 01:08:58,010
I'm not sure.

539
01:08:59,136 --> 01:09:03,474
But however much, it must be crossed
before tomorrow's sun gets up.

540
01:09:04,558 --> 01:09:06,811
This is the sun's anvil.

541
01:10:39,403 --> 01:10:40,654
Have we done it?

542
01:10:40,905 --> 01:10:44,033
No, but we're off the anvil.

543
01:10:44,909 --> 01:10:46,452
Thank God for that anyway.

544
01:10:46,660 --> 01:10:48,579
Yes, thank him.

545
01:10:48,829 --> 01:10:52,416
Lawrence, I do not think you know
how you have tempted him.

546
01:10:52,666 --> 01:10:53,959
I know.

547
01:10:57,296 --> 01:10:58,797
We've done it.

548
01:10:59,089 --> 01:11:00,633
God willing.

549
01:11:02,760 --> 01:11:04,803
When do we reach the wells?

550
01:11:05,179 --> 01:11:08,349
God willing, midday.

551
01:11:08,849 --> 01:11:12,269
- Then we've done it.
- Thank him, Lawrence. Thank him.

552
01:11:15,940 --> 01:11:17,566
Gasim's.

553
01:11:21,445 --> 01:11:23,155
What's happened to him?

554
01:11:23,948 --> 01:11:25,449
God knows.

555
01:11:27,117 --> 01:11:28,994
Why don't you stop?

556
01:11:29,453 --> 01:11:32,957
For what? He will be dead by midday.

557
01:11:38,295 --> 01:11:40,089
We must go back.

558
01:11:40,297 --> 01:11:43,175
What for, to die with Gasim?

559
01:11:44,468 --> 01:11:46,720
In one hour comes the sun.

560
01:11:48,222 --> 01:11:52,893
In God's name, understand! We cannot go back!

561
01:11:53,143 --> 01:11:54,478
I can.

562
01:11:55,312 --> 01:11:56,981
Take the boys.

563
01:12:02,820 --> 01:12:05,322
If you go back, you kill yourself, is all.

564
01:12:05,489 --> 01:12:07,825
Gasim you have killed already.

565
01:12:08,325 --> 01:12:09,660
Get out of my way.

566
01:12:09,994 --> 01:12:13,831
Gasim's time is come, Lawrence. It is written.

567
01:12:14,039 --> 01:12:15,374
Nothing is written!

568
01:12:18,502 --> 01:12:19,920
Go back, then!

569
01:12:20,337 --> 01:12:23,674
What did you bring us here for
with your blasphemous conceit?

570
01:12:24,675 --> 01:12:26,552
English blasphemer!

571
01:12:27,678 --> 01:12:29,263
Aqaba?

572
01:12:29,763 --> 01:12:31,557
Was it Aqaba?

573
01:12:32,391 --> 01:12:35,144
You will not be at Aqaba, English!

574
01:12:37,187 --> 01:12:38,772
Go back, blasphemer...

575
01:12:39,356 --> 01:12:41,358
...but you will not be at Aqaba.

576
01:12:41,734 --> 01:12:43,444
I shall be at Aqaba.

577
01:12:43,694 --> 01:12:45,738
That is written.

578
01:12:46,363 --> 01:12:47,656
In here.

579
01:12:57,541 --> 01:12:59,293
English!

580
01:12:59,543 --> 01:13:01,211
English!

581
01:19:34,271 --> 01:19:37,190
Lawrence! Daud!

582
01:21:45,610 --> 01:21:47,737
Nothing is written.

583
01:22:19,936 --> 01:22:21,521
AI Lawrence.

584
01:22:25,942 --> 01:22:27,360
Farraj.

585
01:22:28,486 --> 01:22:29,654
Wash.

586
01:23:06,858 --> 01:23:08,568
AI Lawrence.

587
01:23:09,027 --> 01:23:13,657
Truly, for some men nothing is written
unless they write it.

588
01:23:18,328 --> 01:23:21,331
Not AI Lawrence. Just Lawrence.

589
01:23:21,539 --> 01:23:24,292
- AI Lawrence is better.
- True.

590
01:23:26,294 --> 01:23:28,880
Your father too, just Mr. Lawrence?

591
01:23:35,220 --> 01:23:38,014
My father is Sir Thomas Chapman.

592
01:23:38,223 --> 01:23:41,017
- Is that a lord?
- A kind of lord.

593
01:23:41,351 --> 01:23:44,104
Then when he dies, you too will be a lord.

594
01:23:44,354 --> 01:23:45,563
No.

595
01:23:47,732 --> 01:23:49,526
You have an elder brother.

596
01:23:49,693 --> 01:23:50,902
No.

597
01:23:51,069 --> 01:23:56,199
But then, I do not understand this.
Your father's name is Chapman.

598
01:23:57,742 --> 01:23:59,703
He didn't marry my mother.

599
01:24:01,204 --> 01:24:02,872
I see.

600
01:24:03,373 --> 01:24:04,749
I'm sorry.

601
01:24:06,710 --> 01:24:10,630
It seems to me that you are free to
choose your own name, then.

602
01:24:13,216 --> 01:24:15,719
Yes, I suppose I am.

603
01:24:17,053 --> 01:24:18,763
AI Lawrence is best.

604
01:24:21,725 --> 01:24:25,854
All right, I'll settle for AI Lawrence.

605
01:24:55,508 --> 01:24:58,595
They are the robes of a sherif of the Beni Wejh.

606
01:25:11,274 --> 01:25:12,942
Very fine.

607
01:25:14,944 --> 01:25:19,032
- Great honour.
- The honour is to us. Salaam, sherif.

608
01:25:19,282 --> 01:25:21,701
- Is it permitted?
- Surely.

609
01:25:26,915 --> 01:25:31,961
He for whom nothing is written may
write himself a clan.

610
01:25:39,969 --> 01:25:43,223
They are good for riding. Try.

611
01:27:35,335 --> 01:27:37,045
What are you doing, Englishman?

612
01:27:38,421 --> 01:27:39,964
As you see.

613
01:27:41,257 --> 01:27:42,300
Are you alone?

614
01:27:42,759 --> 01:27:44,344
Almost.

615
01:27:52,977 --> 01:27:55,438
Are you with those dogs drinking at my well?

616
01:27:55,688 --> 01:27:57,106
Yours?

617
01:28:00,693 --> 01:28:02,487
I am Auda Abu Tayi.

618
01:28:04,280 --> 01:28:07,116
I've heard of another man of that name.

619
01:28:07,992 --> 01:28:09,702
Other? What other?

620
01:28:10,078 --> 01:28:14,290
The Auda I'd heard of wouldn't need to
summon help to look after his wells.

621
01:28:17,794 --> 01:28:19,963
He must be a great hero.

622
01:28:20,171 --> 01:28:21,881
He is.

623
01:28:22,131 --> 01:28:25,301
He wouldn't refuse water to men
coming out of Nefud Desert.

624
01:28:25,635 --> 01:28:27,720
Now, would he not?

625
01:28:30,306 --> 01:28:33,142
No, that must be some other man.

626
01:28:35,645 --> 01:28:37,522
Here is my help.

627
01:29:03,214 --> 01:29:05,883
Son, what fashion is this?

628
01:29:07,218 --> 01:29:10,888
- Harith, Father.
- What manner of Harith?

629
01:29:11,514 --> 01:29:12,849
A Beni Wejh sherif.

630
01:29:13,850 --> 01:29:15,351
And is he Harith?

631
01:29:15,560 --> 01:29:17,770
No, Father, English.

632
01:29:21,024 --> 01:29:22,358
Son...

633
01:29:23,192 --> 01:29:25,278
...they are stealing our water.

634
01:29:26,195 --> 01:29:28,031
Tell them we are coming.

635
01:29:28,781 --> 01:29:29,866
Tell them.

636
01:30:39,811 --> 01:30:41,479
- Empty that!
- Do not!

637
01:30:43,773 --> 01:30:45,942
It is Auda of the Howeitat who speaks.

638
01:30:46,734 --> 01:30:48,778
It is Ali of the Harith who answers.

639
01:31:04,961 --> 01:31:06,254
Harith.

640
01:31:07,130 --> 01:31:08,297
Ali.

641
01:31:09,006 --> 01:31:11,259
Does your father still steal?

642
01:31:13,344 --> 01:31:14,554
No.

643
01:31:16,180 --> 01:31:19,142
Does Auda take me for one of his own bastards?

644
01:31:20,351 --> 01:31:23,521
No. There is no resemblance.

645
01:31:24,397 --> 01:31:26,816
Alas, you resemble your father.

646
01:31:27,275 --> 01:31:30,153
- Auda flatters me.
- You are easily flattered.

647
01:31:30,695 --> 01:31:33,156
I knew your father well.

648
01:31:33,573 --> 01:31:35,408
Did you know your own'?

649
01:31:38,786 --> 01:31:43,499
We are 50, you are two. How if we shot you down?

650
01:31:44,000 --> 01:31:47,086
Why, then you have a blood feud with the Howeitat.

651
01:31:48,379 --> 01:31:51,424
- Do you desire it?
- Not the generals in Cairo...

652
01:31:51,924 --> 01:31:55,011
...nor the sultan himself desire that.

653
01:31:58,181 --> 01:31:59,348
Call off your men.

654
01:32:04,896 --> 01:32:07,523
This honours the unworthy.

655
01:32:07,857 --> 01:32:09,942
I've only just begun to teach him.

656
01:32:10,193 --> 01:32:14,447
And what are you teaching him today?
Howeitat hospitality?

657
01:32:14,697 --> 01:32:16,699
Be not clever with me, English.

658
01:32:18,409 --> 01:32:21,704
- Who is he?
- A friend of Prince Feisal's.

659
01:32:31,214 --> 01:32:34,383
- So you desire my hospitality?
- Yes.

660
01:32:34,592 --> 01:32:36,093
Is he your tongue?

661
01:32:36,844 --> 01:32:38,596
We do desire it.

662
01:32:41,766 --> 01:32:44,894
Then it is given, if you will take it.

663
01:32:46,395 --> 01:32:48,231
I'm at my summer camp, a poor place.

664
01:32:48,481 --> 01:32:53,236
Well, to me it seems a poor place.
Some men find it marvellous.

665
01:32:53,986 --> 01:32:58,407
Tomorrow, maybe I will allow the
Turks to buy you, friends of Feisal.

666
01:32:59,659 --> 01:33:00,910
But...

667
01:33:01,410 --> 01:33:02,745
...dine with me.

668
01:33:04,121 --> 01:33:05,581
Dine with Auda, English.

669
01:33:06,415 --> 01:33:08,918
Dine with the Howeitat, Harith.

670
01:33:09,669 --> 01:33:14,423
It is my pleasure that you dine with me in Wadi Rumm!

671
01:35:54,083 --> 01:35:57,753
This thing you work against Aqaba...

672
01:35:58,129 --> 01:36:00,548
...what profit do you hope from it?

673
01:36:00,756 --> 01:36:03,342
We work it for Feisal of Mecca.

674
01:36:03,592 --> 01:36:05,678
The Harith do not work for profit.

675
01:36:06,846 --> 01:36:10,599
Well, if it is in a man to be
a servant, Sherif Ali...

676
01:36:11,100 --> 01:36:13,602
...he could find worse masters than Feisal.

677
01:36:13,936 --> 01:36:16,772
But I... I cannot serve.

678
01:36:17,648 --> 01:36:20,693
You permit the Turks to stay in Aqaba.

679
01:36:20,943 --> 01:36:22,945
Yes, it is my pleasure.

680
01:36:27,950 --> 01:36:31,454
We do not work this thing for Feisal.

681
01:36:31,954 --> 01:36:32,955
No?

682
01:36:33,998 --> 01:36:36,667
- For the English, then?
- For the Arabs.

683
01:36:37,293 --> 01:36:38,711
The Arabs?

684
01:36:39,503 --> 01:36:43,799
The Howeitat, Ageyil, Ruala,
Beni Sahkr, these I know.

685
01:36:44,008 --> 01:36:46,010
I have even heard of the Harith.

686
01:36:46,677 --> 01:36:48,179
But the Arabs?

687
01:36:48,637 --> 01:36:50,806
What tribe is that?

688
01:36:52,475 --> 01:36:56,645
They're a tribe of slaves. They serve the Turks.

689
01:36:56,854 --> 01:36:58,898
Well, they are nothing to me.

690
01:36:59,148 --> 01:37:01,025
My tribe is the Howeitat.

691
01:37:01,233 --> 01:37:03,611
Who work only for profit.

692
01:37:03,819 --> 01:37:05,488
Who work at Auda's pleasure.

693
01:37:05,654 --> 01:37:08,324
And Auda's pleasure is to serve the Turks.

694
01:37:08,491 --> 01:37:09,658
Serve?

695
01:37:10,117 --> 01:37:11,160
I serve?

696
01:37:11,368 --> 01:37:14,038
It is the servant who takes money.

697
01:37:19,335 --> 01:37:21,045
I am Auda Abu Tayi.

698
01:37:21,337 --> 01:37:23,172
- Does Auda serve?
- No!

699
01:37:23,339 --> 01:37:26,509
- Does Auda Abu Tayi serve?
- No!

700
01:37:31,180 --> 01:37:35,267
I carry <i>23</i> great wounds, all got in battle.

701
01:37:35,726 --> 01:37:39,230
75 men have I killed with my own hands, in battle.

702
01:37:39,438 --> 01:37:43,651
I scatter, I burn my enemies tents.
I take away their flocks and herds.

703
01:37:43,859 --> 01:37:47,947
The Turks pay me a golden treasure, yet I am poor!

704
01:37:48,197 --> 01:37:52,368
Because I am a river to my people.

705
01:38:01,043 --> 01:38:02,211
Is that service?

706
01:38:02,753 --> 01:38:04,046
No.

707
01:38:10,761 --> 01:38:14,265
And yet now it seems Auda has grown old.

708
01:38:14,473 --> 01:38:17,226
And lost his taste for fighting.

709
01:38:17,393 --> 01:38:21,564
It is well you say it in my tent, thou old tulip.

710
01:38:21,772 --> 01:38:25,568
Yet this is a tulip that the Turks could not buy.

711
01:38:25,734 --> 01:38:27,570
Why should they wish to?

712
01:38:29,738 --> 01:38:30,781
Now...

713
01:38:31,407 --> 01:38:35,578
I will tell you what they pay me,
and you will tell me if this is...

714
01:38:35,786 --> 01:38:38,080
a servant's wages

715
01:38:38,247 --> 01:38:42,251
They pay me, month by month...

716
01:38:42,459 --> 01:38:46,589
...1O0 golden guineas.

717
01:38:47,756 --> 01:38:50,926
150, Auda.

718
01:38:51,135 --> 01:38:54,096
- Who told you that?
- I have long ears.

719
01:38:54,263 --> 01:38:56,599
And a long tongue between them.

720
01:38:56,765 --> 01:39:00,144
100, 150, what matters? It's a trifle.

721
01:39:00,352 --> 01:39:04,148
A trifle which they take from a great box they have.

722
01:39:04,356 --> 01:39:06,358
In Aqaba.

723
01:39:07,610 --> 01:39:10,321
- In Aqaba?
- Where else?

724
01:39:11,238 --> 01:39:14,116
You trouble me like women.

725
01:39:14,450 --> 01:39:17,620
Friends, we've been foolish.
Auda will not come to Aqaba.

726
01:39:18,287 --> 01:39:19,455
- For money?
- No.

727
01:39:19,788 --> 01:39:20,956
- For Feisal?
- No!

728
01:39:21,165 --> 01:39:24,251
Nor to drive away the Turks.

729
01:39:25,002 --> 01:39:26,879
He will come...

730
01:39:27,796 --> 01:39:30,132
...because it is his pleasure.

731
01:39:32,134 --> 01:39:35,804
Thy mother mated with a scorpion.

732
01:39:37,181 --> 01:39:40,643
Make God your agent!

733
01:39:41,977 --> 01:39:44,146
Aqaba!

734
01:39:44,355 --> 01:39:46,023
Aqaba!

735
01:40:01,705 --> 01:40:03,707
God be with you.

736
01:40:06,669 --> 01:40:08,337
God be with you.

737
01:40:21,850 --> 01:40:24,353
God be with you.

738
01:40:24,812 --> 01:40:26,855
God be with you.

739
01:43:22,406 --> 01:43:23,866
Yes.

740
01:43:24,199 --> 01:43:25,242
Aqaba.

741
01:43:26,869 --> 01:43:29,538
Tomorrow we will go and get it.

742
01:43:30,747 --> 01:43:33,709
- Do you think we shall?
- Yes.

743
01:43:33,876 --> 01:43:36,628
If you are right about the guns.

744
01:44:04,573 --> 01:44:07,284
He killed. He dies.

745
01:44:08,035 --> 01:44:10,245
This is the end of Aqaba.

746
01:44:12,915 --> 01:44:14,750
One of our men murdered Auda's man.

747
01:44:14,917 --> 01:44:15,918
Why?

748
01:44:16,126 --> 01:44:19,171
Theft? Blood feud? It makes no matter why.

749
01:44:19,630 --> 01:44:20,839
Ali!

750
01:44:21,256 --> 01:44:23,091
It is an ancient wound.

751
01:44:23,300 --> 01:44:26,261
I didn't come here to watch a tribal bloodbath.

752
01:44:30,766 --> 01:44:32,935
It is the law, Lawrence.

753
01:44:33,101 --> 01:44:35,437
The law says the man must die.

754
01:44:36,355 --> 01:44:39,441
If he dies, will that content the Howeitat?

755
01:44:40,442 --> 01:44:41,693
Yes.

756
01:44:45,155 --> 01:44:46,782
Sherif Ali!

757
01:44:46,949 --> 01:44:49,952
If none of Lord Auda's men harms any of yours...

758
01:44:50,327 --> 01:44:53,580
...will that content the Harith?
- Yes.

759
01:44:59,711 --> 01:45:02,339
Then I will execute the law.

760
01:45:03,340 --> 01:45:05,467
I have no tribe.

761
01:45:06,718 --> 01:45:09,012
And no one is offended.

762
01:45:21,483 --> 01:45:22,484
Gasim.

763
01:45:26,989 --> 01:45:28,407
Did you do it?

764
01:45:55,350 --> 01:45:57,019
Well, Lawrence...

765
01:46:04,526 --> 01:46:05,902
What ails the Englishman?

766
01:46:06,153 --> 01:46:09,573
That that he killed was the man
he brought out of the Nefud.

767
01:46:09,781 --> 01:46:11,783
It was written, then.

768
01:46:12,659 --> 01:46:14,661
Better to have left him.

769
01:46:18,290 --> 01:46:21,585
It was execution, Lawrence. No shame in that.

770
01:46:22,044 --> 01:46:24,296
Besides, it was necessary.

771
01:46:25,380 --> 01:46:27,591
You gave life and you took it.

772
01:46:28,175 --> 01:46:29,718
The writing is still yours.

773
01:47:06,922 --> 01:47:09,007
Auda Abu Tayi!

774
01:50:25,036 --> 01:50:27,289
The miracle is accomplished.

775
01:50:28,290 --> 01:50:29,916
Garlands for the conqueror.

776
01:50:51,021 --> 01:50:54,190
Tribute for the prince. Flowers for the man.

777
01:50:54,983 --> 01:50:56,693
I'm none of those things, Ali.

778
01:50:56,943 --> 01:50:59,571
- What, then?
- Don't know.

779
01:51:00,655 --> 01:51:01,948
Thanks.

780
01:51:03,491 --> 01:51:05,660
My God, I love this country.

781
01:51:07,329 --> 01:51:08,330
What!

782
01:51:09,372 --> 01:51:11,249
No gold in Aqaba!

783
01:51:12,584 --> 01:51:15,003
Auda, I found it!

784
01:51:24,220 --> 01:51:25,847
That's a pity.

785
01:51:29,392 --> 01:51:31,978
Ali, get a message down the coast to Yenbo.

786
01:51:32,187 --> 01:51:34,689
Tell Feisal to find boats, any boats...

787
01:51:34,856 --> 01:51:38,026
...and bring the Arab army here to Aqaba, quickly.

788
01:51:38,234 --> 01:51:39,402
And you?

789
01:51:40,195 --> 01:51:42,739
I'm going to tell the generals...

790
01:51:43,198 --> 01:51:45,033
...in Cairo.

791
01:51:45,241 --> 01:51:47,577
Yes, cross Sinai.

792
01:51:47,869 --> 01:51:48,870
Come on!

793
01:51:49,204 --> 01:51:50,538
Sinai?

794
01:51:51,039 --> 01:51:52,374
Yes.

795
01:51:52,874 --> 01:51:56,544
- With these?
- They'll be all right with me.

796
01:52:01,800 --> 01:52:05,929
Look, Ali. If any of your Bedouin
arrived in Cairo and said:

797
01:52:06,221 --> 01:52:09,057
"We've taken Aqaba," the generals would laugh.

798
01:52:09,808 --> 01:52:11,101
I see.

799
01:52:11,726 --> 01:52:14,896
In Cairo you will put off these funny clothes.

800
01:52:15,063 --> 01:52:19,275
You'll wear trousers and tell stories
of our quaintness and barbarity...

801
01:52:19,901 --> 01:52:22,153
...and then they will believe you.

802
01:52:22,737 --> 01:52:24,906
You're an ignorant man.

803
01:52:44,926 --> 01:52:46,344
Paper

804
01:52:47,262 --> 01:52:49,097
Paper!

805
01:52:51,808 --> 01:52:54,477
There is no gold in Aqaba.

806
01:52:55,603 --> 01:52:57,439
No gold

807
01:52:58,815 --> 01:53:00,775
No great box!

808
01:53:04,946 --> 01:53:07,282
Did Auda come to Aqaba for gold?

809
01:53:07,824 --> 01:53:10,118
For my pleasure, as you said.

810
01:53:11,369 --> 01:53:13,872
But gold is honourable...

811
01:53:14,956 --> 01:53:17,625
...and Lawrence promised gold.

812
01:53:18,710 --> 01:53:19,878
Lawrence lied.

813
01:53:21,838 --> 01:53:23,298
See, Auda.

814
01:53:25,967 --> 01:53:28,094
"The Crown of England...

815
01:53:29,179 --> 01:53:31,639
...promises to pay...

816
01:53:32,640 --> 01:53:37,020
...5000 golden guineas...

817
01:53:37,520 --> 01:53:42,233
...to Auda Abu Tayi."

818
01:53:43,359 --> 01:53:47,655
Signed in His Majesty's absence...

819
01:53:47,906 --> 01:53:49,324
---by---

820
01:53:51,034 --> 01:53:52,243
...me.

821
01:53:53,328 --> 01:53:55,497
In 10 days...

822
01:53:56,206 --> 01:53:58,333
...I'll be back with the gold.

823
01:53:59,417 --> 01:54:04,172
With gold, with guns, with everything.

824
01:54:05,256 --> 01:54:06,841
Ten days.

825
01:54:08,134 --> 01:54:09,761
You'll cross Sinai?

826
01:54:10,053 --> 01:54:11,429
Why not?

827
01:54:12,180 --> 01:54:13,890
Moses did.

828
01:54:16,518 --> 01:54:18,728
And you will take the children?

829
01:54:20,021 --> 01:54:21,397
Moses did.

830
01:54:21,648 --> 01:54:23,358
Moses was a prophet...

831
01:54:23,858 --> 01:54:26,444
...and beloved of God.

832
01:54:31,741 --> 01:54:35,870
He said there was gold here. He lied.

833
01:54:37,163 --> 01:54:40,041
He is not perfect.

834
01:54:50,093 --> 01:54:52,554
Lord, can we not rest?

835
01:54:52,720 --> 01:54:55,890
I told you, no rest till they know that I have Aqaba.

836
01:54:58,101 --> 01:54:59,811
Have you two slept in beds?

837
01:55:00,061 --> 01:55:01,271
Farraj?

838
01:55:01,896 --> 01:55:03,189
Daud?

839
01:55:04,399 --> 01:55:06,067
With sheets?

840
01:55:07,986 --> 01:55:11,447
Tomorrow the finest sheets
in the finest room and hotel in Cairo.

841
01:55:11,698 --> 01:55:12,991
I promise.

842
01:55:13,241 --> 01:55:15,910
Then it shall be so, lord.

843
01:55:37,265 --> 01:55:38,600
Look!

844
01:55:45,356 --> 01:55:46,941
Pillar of fire.

845
01:55:50,153 --> 01:55:52,155
No, lord. Dust.

846
01:56:41,788 --> 01:56:43,289
My compass.

847
01:56:45,083 --> 01:56:46,376
No matter.

848
01:56:46,834 --> 01:56:50,546
If we ride west, we must strike the canal.

849
01:56:51,673 --> 01:56:53,049
Due west.

850
01:57:13,695 --> 01:57:15,196
Come on!

851
01:57:48,604 --> 01:57:51,232
Lawrence!

852
01:58:03,953 --> 01:58:05,246
Farraj!

853
01:58:15,506 --> 01:58:18,426
Farraj, don't! Don't!

854
01:58:19,469 --> 01:58:20,887
Don't!

855
01:59:56,357 --> 01:59:57,525
Why do you walk?

856
02:00:00,278 --> 02:00:02,196
But why, lord?

857
02:00:13,541 --> 02:00:14,792
But why, lord?

858
02:00:15,042 --> 02:00:18,504
There is room for both. It serves no purpose.

859
02:00:44,238 --> 02:00:46,741
Lawrence, look!

860
02:01:55,643 --> 02:01:57,687
It's all right, Farraj.

861
02:01:57,895 --> 02:01:59,480
It's all right.

862
02:03:11,385 --> 02:03:13,262
Who are you?

863
02:03:15,389 --> 02:03:18,059
Who are you?

864
02:03:53,469 --> 02:03:56,097
- Daud!
- We're here, sir.

865
02:04:14,281 --> 02:04:15,825
You taking him in there?

866
02:04:16,951 --> 02:04:18,327
Yes.

867
02:04:38,848 --> 02:04:40,266
Here!

868
02:04:42,184 --> 02:04:44,520
Here. You!

869
02:04:46,063 --> 02:04:49,567
And where the hell do you think
you're going to, Mustapha?

870
02:04:50,317 --> 02:04:51,819
We are thirsty.

871
02:04:53,654 --> 02:04:56,073
- Mr. Lawrence, is it?
- Yes.

872
02:04:56,532 --> 02:04:59,660
- Are you going to the officers' bar?
- Yes.

873
02:05:00,870 --> 02:05:03,164
You can't take him in there, sir.

874
02:05:06,834 --> 02:05:09,378
What do you think you look like?

875
02:05:28,063 --> 02:05:29,690
No, no. You must go.

876
02:05:29,899 --> 02:05:31,525
No, no. Go, effendi, go!

877
02:05:33,360 --> 02:05:36,113
Get out! You must get out! Get out!

878
02:05:37,740 --> 02:05:42,036
We want two large glasses of lemonade.

879
02:05:42,244 --> 02:05:46,081
- This is a bar for British officers.
- We are not particular.

880
02:05:51,420 --> 02:05:55,341
- Are you off your head?
- No. Oddly enough I'm not.

881
02:05:55,591 --> 02:05:59,220
- Just clear out of here, will you?
- Get that boy out of here.

882
02:05:59,553 --> 02:06:02,223
Corporal, we'll have this one out anyway.

883
02:06:02,890 --> 02:06:05,434
- Get that wog out of here.
- Clear oh'.

884
02:06:07,561 --> 02:06:09,271
What's going on?

885
02:06:12,233 --> 02:06:16,153
- It's Lawrence, sir.
- Lemonade with ice.

886
02:06:17,488 --> 02:06:19,073
Explain yourself.

887
02:06:19,782 --> 02:06:21,575
We've taken Aqaba.

888
02:06:22,076 --> 02:06:24,745
- Taken Aqaba? Who has?
- We have.

889
02:06:24,995 --> 02:06:29,500
Our side in this war has. The wogs have.

890
02:06:30,251 --> 02:06:31,585
We have.

891
02:06:33,379 --> 02:06:35,256
He likes your lemonade.

892
02:06:35,589 --> 02:06:37,508
You mean the Turks have gone?

893
02:06:37,800 --> 02:06:40,761
No, they're still there but they've no boots.

894
02:06:41,262 --> 02:06:45,391
Prisoners, sir. We took them
prisoners. The entire garrison.

895
02:06:45,891 --> 02:06:48,102
That's not true. We killed some.

896
02:06:48,310 --> 02:06:52,273
Too many, really. I'll manage it better next time.

897
02:06:53,607 --> 02:06:56,485
There's been a lot of killing one way or another.

898
02:06:58,612 --> 02:07:02,116
Cross my heart and hope to die,
it's all perfectly true.

899
02:07:02,324 --> 02:07:05,119
- It isn't possible.
- Yes, it is.

900
02:07:05,452 --> 02:07:07,288
I did it.

901
02:07:12,501 --> 02:07:14,169
You'd better talk to Allenby.

902
02:07:14,461 --> 02:07:17,214
- General Allenby?
- He's in command. Murray's gone.

903
02:07:17,464 --> 02:07:19,717
That's a step in the right direction.

904
02:07:20,467 --> 02:07:23,220
First I want a room. With a bed, with sheets.

905
02:07:23,512 --> 02:07:26,223
- Yes, of course.
- It's for him.

906
02:07:27,975 --> 02:07:30,853
Right. You want a bed yourself, don't you?

907
02:07:31,145 --> 02:07:33,147
See Allenby first, though.

908
02:07:33,814 --> 02:07:35,441
Will he see me?

909
02:07:36,191 --> 02:07:37,693
I think so.

910
02:07:38,444 --> 02:07:39,987
Do that, then.

911
02:07:44,867 --> 02:07:47,494
- I'd better shave.
- Yes, you had.

912
02:07:47,703 --> 02:07:50,331
You'd better get into some trousers too.

913
02:08:01,508 --> 02:08:03,344
"Undisciplined.

914
02:08:05,220 --> 02:08:07,181
Unpunctual.

915
02:08:08,349 --> 02:08:10,267
Untidy.

916
02:08:12,102 --> 02:08:14,229
Several languages.

917
02:08:15,522 --> 02:08:17,524
Knowledge of music...

918
02:08:18,400 --> 02:08:20,194
...literature.

919
02:08:21,236 --> 02:08:23,197
Knowledge of...

920
02:08:24,573 --> 02:08:26,367
Knowledge of..."

921
02:08:29,578 --> 02:08:32,539
You're an interesting man, there's no doubt about it.

922
02:08:33,207 --> 02:08:36,293
- Who told you to take Aqaba?
- Nobody.

923
02:08:36,585 --> 02:08:39,254
- Sir.
- Sir.

924
02:08:39,546 --> 02:08:40,881
Then why did you?

925
02:08:41,048 --> 02:08:43,550
- Aqaba's important.
- Why is it important?

926
02:08:43,759 --> 02:08:46,303
- It's the Turkish route to the canal.
- Not any more.

927
02:08:46,553 --> 02:08:50,724
- They're coming through Beersheba.
- I know, but we've gone to Gaza.

928
02:08:50,891 --> 02:08:55,521
- So?
- So that left Aqaba behind your right.

929
02:08:56,063 --> 02:08:57,106
True.

930
02:08:57,314 --> 02:09:01,944
And it will be further behind your
right when you go for Jerusalem.

931
02:09:02,820 --> 02:09:05,239
Am I going for Jerusalem?

932
02:09:05,572 --> 02:09:06,740
Yes.

933
02:09:09,076 --> 02:09:10,536
Very well.

934
02:09:10,744 --> 02:09:13,038
Aqaba behind my right.

935
02:09:13,247 --> 02:09:16,125
It threatened El' ArTsh and Gaza.

936
02:09:17,584 --> 02:09:18,836
Anything else?

937
02:09:19,086 --> 02:09:20,295
Yes.

938
02:09:20,587 --> 02:09:23,048
Aqaba's linked with Medina.

939
02:09:23,590 --> 02:09:26,593
Do you think we should shift them out of Medina now?

940
02:09:26,844 --> 02:09:30,431
No. I think you should leave them there.

941
02:09:30,597 --> 02:09:32,599
You acted without orders, you know.

942
02:09:33,308 --> 02:09:37,563
Shouldn't officers use their initiative at all times?

943
02:09:37,771 --> 02:09:40,107
Not really. It's awfully dangerous.

944
02:09:40,315 --> 02:09:42,651
Yes, I know.

945
02:09:42,943 --> 02:09:44,486
Already?

946
02:09:44,778 --> 02:09:45,946
Yes.

947
02:09:47,698 --> 02:09:50,325
I'm promoting you major.

948
02:09:51,326 --> 02:09:53,620
I don't think that's a very good idea.

949
02:09:53,787 --> 02:09:56,874
I didn't ask you. I want you to go back...

950
02:09:57,124 --> 02:10:00,794
...and carry on the good work.

951
02:10:01,295 --> 02:10:04,131
No. Thank you, sir.

952
02:10:04,631 --> 02:10:08,594
- Why not?
- Well, I, it's...

953
02:10:08,802 --> 02:10:10,137
Let me see now...

954
02:10:11,847 --> 02:10:15,601
I killed two people. I mean, two Arabs.

955
02:10:15,809 --> 02:10:18,020
One was a boy.

956
02:10:18,228 --> 02:10:19,688
That was...

957
02:10:21,315 --> 02:10:23,150
...yesterday.

958
02:10:23,358 --> 02:10:25,402
I led him into a quicksand.

959
02:10:25,652 --> 02:10:27,321
The other was a man.

960
02:10:27,654 --> 02:10:29,615
That was...

961
02:10:29,823 --> 02:10:32,242
...before Aqaba, anyway.

962
02:10:32,910 --> 02:10:35,621
I had to execute him with my pistol.

963
02:10:36,121 --> 02:10:39,166
There was something about it I didn't like.

964
02:10:39,416 --> 02:10:42,544
- Well, naturally.
- No. Something else.

965
02:10:44,838 --> 02:10:47,174
That's all right. Let it be a warning.

966
02:10:47,382 --> 02:10:49,510
No. Something else.

967
02:10:51,136 --> 02:10:52,721
What, then?

968
02:10:53,639 --> 02:10:56,016
I enjoyed it.

969
02:11:03,524 --> 02:11:07,027
Rubbish. Rubbish and nerves. You're tired.

970
02:11:08,779 --> 02:11:12,407
What do you mean coming dressed
like that? Amateur theatricals?

971
02:11:12,658 --> 02:11:14,368
Yes. Entirely.

972
02:11:14,576 --> 02:11:17,704
Let me see that hat thing or whatever it is.

973
02:11:18,038 --> 02:11:20,040
Fascinating gear they wear.

974
02:11:20,290 --> 02:11:22,543
How would I look in this, Harry?

975
02:11:22,751 --> 02:11:26,255
- Damn ridiculous, sir.
- Here, you keep it.

976
02:11:27,172 --> 02:11:31,260
What I'm trying to say
is I don't think I'm fit for it.

977
02:11:31,468 --> 02:11:34,388
Really? What do you think, Dryden?

978
02:11:35,389 --> 02:11:39,977
Before he did it, sir, I'd have said
it couldn't be done.

979
02:11:40,310 --> 02:11:43,313
- Brighton?
- I know what he thinks.

980
02:11:44,481 --> 02:11:47,818
I think you should recommend a decoration, sir.

981
02:11:48,193 --> 02:11:51,071
I don't think it matters what his motives were.

982
02:11:51,280 --> 02:11:54,408
It was a brilliant bit of soldiering.

983
02:11:55,951 --> 02:11:57,828
- Mr. Perkins!
- Sir!

984
02:11:58,078 --> 02:12:00,706
Let's have a drink, gentlemen.

985
02:12:04,751 --> 02:12:08,130
- You've heard about this, Mr. Perkins?
- Yes, sir.

986
02:12:08,338 --> 02:12:12,634
- What do you think about it?
- Bloody marvellous, sir. Well done.

987
02:12:12,843 --> 02:12:15,929
- Thank you, Mr. Perkins.
- Sir!

988
02:12:21,602 --> 02:12:23,228
Come on, then.

989
02:12:26,815 --> 02:12:28,609
You're a clever man, sir.

990
02:12:28,942 --> 02:12:32,529
No, but I know a good thing when I see one.

991
02:12:32,779 --> 02:12:35,490
That's fair, surely?

992
02:12:56,011 --> 02:13:01,141
If I need a breakthrough to Jerusalem,
I must concentrate, not dissipate.

993
02:13:01,350 --> 02:13:03,644
- Bravo.
- You know better?

994
02:13:23,205 --> 02:13:26,041
I fight like Clausewitz, then you fight like Saxe.

995
02:13:26,291 --> 02:13:28,669
We should do very well indeed, shouldn't we?

996
02:14:05,247 --> 02:14:07,708
Easy, gentlemen, please.

997
02:14:08,875 --> 02:14:11,086
- Give us something to drink.
- Of course, sir.

998
02:14:11,586 --> 02:14:15,215
I'm here at the invitation of Major Lawrence.

999
02:14:15,966 --> 02:14:17,134
Tracy.

1000
02:14:19,052 --> 02:14:20,887
Shall we go outside?

1001
02:14:32,065 --> 02:14:35,360
So you hold bound the Turkish desert army?

1002
02:14:35,569 --> 02:14:36,611
Yes.

1003
02:14:36,862 --> 02:14:39,156
With 1000 Arabs?

1004
02:14:40,240 --> 02:14:43,410
1000 Arabs means 1000 knives.

1005
02:14:43,577 --> 02:14:45,579
Delivered anywhere, day or night.

1006
02:14:46,121 --> 02:14:47,789
It means 1000 camels.

1007
02:14:48,081 --> 02:14:52,377
That means 1000 packs of high
explosives and 1000 crack rifles.

1008
02:14:52,919 --> 02:14:56,673
We can cross Arabia while
Johnny Turk is still turning round.

1009
02:14:57,257 --> 02:14:59,176
I'll smash his railways.

1010
02:14:59,426 --> 02:15:01,928
While he mends, I'll smash them somewhere else.

1011
02:15:02,179 --> 02:15:04,973
In 13 weeks I can have Arabia in chaos.

1012
02:15:05,265 --> 02:15:07,601
You are going back, then?

1013
02:15:10,437 --> 02:15:11,688
Yes.

1014
02:15:12,105 --> 02:15:14,441
Of course I'm going back.

1015
02:15:18,779 --> 02:15:21,198
Well, if we can see it, so can the Turk.

1016
02:15:21,448 --> 02:15:25,702
If he finds he's using four divisions
to fend off a handful of bandits...

1017
02:15:25,952 --> 02:15:27,120
...he'll withdraw.

1018
02:15:27,287 --> 02:15:30,040
He daren't withdraw. Arabia's part of his empire.

1019
02:15:30,290 --> 02:15:32,793
If he gets out now, he'll never get back again.

1020
02:15:33,043 --> 02:15:35,545
- I wonder who will.
- No one will.

1021
02:15:36,171 --> 02:15:38,423
Arabia's for the Arabs now.

1022
02:15:44,429 --> 02:15:46,723
That's what I've told them anyway.

1023
02:15:47,182 --> 02:15:49,017
That's what they think.

1024
02:15:49,476 --> 02:15:52,729
- That's why they're fighting.
- Oh, surely.

1025
02:15:55,690 --> 02:15:57,984
They've only one suspicion.

1026
02:15:58,443 --> 02:16:02,823
That we'll let them drive the Turks
out and then move in ourselves.

1027
02:16:03,031 --> 02:16:07,536
I've told them that that's false,
that we have no ambitions in Arabia.

1028
02:16:07,744 --> 02:16:08,829
Have we?

1029
02:16:09,329 --> 02:16:11,498
I'm not a politician, thank God.

1030
02:16:11,706 --> 02:16:14,835
Have we any ambition in Arabia, Dryden?

1031
02:16:15,836 --> 02:16:18,088
Difficult question, sir.

1032
02:16:20,090 --> 02:16:23,885
I want to know, sir,
if I can tell them in your name...

1033
02:16:24,094 --> 02:16:27,514
...that we've no ambitions in Arabia.

1034
02:16:28,557 --> 02:16:30,058
Certainly.

1035
02:16:47,576 --> 02:16:51,037
2000 small arms, not enough. I need five.

1036
02:16:51,246 --> 02:16:52,414
Right.

1037
02:16:52,706 --> 02:16:56,042
Money. It'll have to be sovereigns.
They don't like paper.

1038
02:16:57,043 --> 02:17:00,422
- Instructors for the Lewis guns.
- Right.

1039
02:17:00,630 --> 02:17:02,215
More money.

1040
02:17:02,549 --> 02:17:05,719
- How much more?
- 25,000 now. A lot more later.

1041
02:17:05,927 --> 02:17:08,638
- Dryden?
- It can be done, sir.

1042
02:17:08,889 --> 02:17:11,725
A couple of armoured cars.

1043
02:17:11,892 --> 02:17:13,268
Right.

1044
02:17:14,019 --> 02:17:15,562
Field artillery.

1045
02:17:17,731 --> 02:17:19,107
Right.

1046
02:17:22,068 --> 02:17:24,321
I'll give you every blessed thing I can...

1047
02:17:24,571 --> 02:17:27,449
...because I know you'll use it. Congratulations.

1048
02:17:27,657 --> 02:17:30,410
Thank you for your hospitality, gentlemen.

1049
02:18:06,071 --> 02:18:07,948
Congratulations!

1050
02:18:18,208 --> 02:18:21,294
Are you really going to give them artillery, sir?

1051
02:18:21,503 --> 02:18:23,338
I was wondering that, sir.

1052
02:18:23,588 --> 02:18:25,799
Might be difficult to get it back.

1053
02:18:26,007 --> 02:18:29,594
Give them artillery and you've made them independent.

1054
02:18:29,803 --> 02:18:31,721
Then I can't give it to them, can I?

1055
02:18:31,972 --> 02:18:33,890
- For you to say.
- No, it's not.

1056
02:18:34,140 --> 02:18:36,893
I've got orders to obey, thank God.

1057
02:18:37,143 --> 02:18:39,104
Not like that poor devil.

1058
02:18:39,604 --> 02:18:41,147
He's riding the whirlwind.

1059
02:18:41,356 --> 02:18:43,608
Let's hope we're not.

1060
02:24:07,348 --> 02:24:10,601
Excuse me, friend. Who do these bags belong to?

1061
02:24:11,144 --> 02:24:12,353
To Prince Feisal.

1062
02:24:12,603 --> 02:24:15,356
- You're not Prince Feisal?
- No.

1063
02:24:15,648 --> 02:24:16,983
You know him though?

1064
02:24:17,150 --> 02:24:20,653
He is my master. I am his servant.

1065
02:24:23,823 --> 02:24:25,158
Can you read?

1066
02:24:33,833 --> 02:24:38,338
Chicago Courier is my paper,
but my work is syndicated in America.

1067
02:24:38,588 --> 02:24:42,133
I understood so from your letter, Mr. Bentley.

1068
02:24:56,314 --> 02:24:57,482
Now...

1069
02:24:58,691 --> 02:25:02,653
- Where can I find Major Lawrence?
- Is that what you have come for?

1070
02:25:02,862 --> 02:25:04,989
Not altogether, sir, no.

1071
02:25:05,239 --> 02:25:09,619
Well, Mr. Bentley, you will find
Major Lawrence with my army.

1072
02:25:09,827 --> 02:25:12,914
That's what I meant, sir. Where can I find your army?

1073
02:25:13,206 --> 02:25:14,374
I don't know.

1074
02:25:15,041 --> 02:25:17,710
- Last week they were near El Ghira.
- Ghira?

1075
02:25:17,919 --> 02:25:21,756
Yes, I fear you have a long journey.
Can you ride a camel?

1076
02:25:22,715 --> 02:25:25,343
- I've never tried.
- Take a mule.

1077
02:25:25,885 --> 02:25:28,012
Avoid Mellaha, the Turks are there.

1078
02:25:28,388 --> 02:25:31,015
In Mellaha now? They move fast.

1079
02:25:31,224 --> 02:25:32,517
They do.

1080
02:25:32,725 --> 02:25:35,895
But not so fast as we do, you will find.

1081
02:25:36,229 --> 02:25:37,730
Myself...

1082
02:25:38,356 --> 02:25:40,233
...I am going to Cairo.

1083
02:25:40,441 --> 02:25:42,443
- As you know.
- Yes.

1084
02:25:42,693 --> 02:25:45,196
There's work for me there of a different kind.

1085
02:25:45,738 --> 02:25:46,948
Yes.

1086
02:25:50,535 --> 02:25:52,912
I understand you've been given no artillery.

1087
02:25:53,371 --> 02:25:55,915
- That is so.
- You're handicapped?

1088
02:25:56,082 --> 02:25:58,167
It restricts us to small things.

1089
02:25:58,376 --> 02:25:59,669
It's intended to.

1090
02:26:02,380 --> 02:26:03,965
Do you know General Allenby?

1091
02:26:04,966 --> 02:26:08,428
Watch out for Allenby. He's a slim customer.

1092
02:26:08,761 --> 02:26:11,431
- Excuse me?
- A clever man.

1093
02:26:11,722 --> 02:26:14,600
Slim customer. It's very good.

1094
02:26:14,892 --> 02:26:19,439
I'll certainly watch out for him.
You're being very sympathetic.

1095
02:26:19,730 --> 02:26:23,234
Your Highness, we Americans were
once a colonial people.

1096
02:26:23,443 --> 02:26:25,820
We naturally feel sympathetic to any people...

1097
02:26:26,070 --> 02:26:28,281
...who struggle for their freedom.

1098
02:26:28,448 --> 02:26:30,700
Very gratifying.

1099
02:26:33,453 --> 02:26:37,790
Also, my interests are the same
as yours. You want your story told.

1100
02:26:37,957 --> 02:26:40,293
I badly want a story to tell.

1101
02:26:40,501 --> 02:26:44,297
Ah, now you are talking turkey, are you not?

1102
02:26:44,964 --> 02:26:47,800
I will give you a guide and a letter.

1103
02:26:48,009 --> 02:26:49,969
And before I leave here...

1104
02:26:50,261 --> 02:26:52,597
...which must be presently...

1105
02:26:52,805 --> 02:26:56,309
...I will have some facts and figures
put on paper for you.

1106
02:26:58,102 --> 02:27:01,355
You know that we are destroying the Turkish railways.

1107
02:27:01,606 --> 02:27:02,732
I do, sir.

1108
02:27:02,940 --> 02:27:05,860
Major Lawrence is in charge of all this, is he?

1109
02:27:06,110 --> 02:27:08,613
My army is made up of tribes.

1110
02:27:08,821 --> 02:27:11,824
The tribes are led by the tribal leaders.

1111
02:27:11,991 --> 02:27:15,161
Your people do think very highly of Major Lawrence?

1112
02:27:15,369 --> 02:27:18,456
Oh, yes. And the rightly.

1113
02:27:19,040 --> 02:27:22,376
In this country, Mr. Bentley...

1114
02:27:23,252 --> 02:27:26,672
...the man who gives victory in battle is prized...

1115
02:27:26,839 --> 02:27:29,509
...beyond every other man.

1116
02:27:30,176 --> 02:27:33,346
One figure I can give you from my head...

1117
02:27:33,513 --> 02:27:37,183
...because it never leaves my head.

1118
02:27:37,683 --> 02:27:41,771
Since starting this campaign
four months ago, we have lost...

1119
02:27:42,688 --> 02:27:45,149
...37 wounded...

1120
02:27:47,693 --> 02:27:51,030
...156 dead.

1121
02:27:52,573 --> 02:27:57,370
You remark the disproportion between
our dead and wounded.

1122
02:27:57,578 --> 02:27:58,871
Yeah.

1123
02:27:59,205 --> 02:28:00,581
Four times as many.

1124
02:28:00,831 --> 02:28:05,545
That's because those too wounded
to bring away, we ourselves kill.

1125
02:28:05,795 --> 02:28:08,297
We leave no wounded for the Turks.

1126
02:28:08,714 --> 02:28:12,385
- You mean...?
- We leave no wounded for the Turks.

1127
02:28:12,885 --> 02:28:16,305
In their eyes, we are not soldiers but rebels.

1128
02:28:16,514 --> 02:28:21,018
Rebels, wounded or whole, are
not protected by the Geneva Code...

1129
02:28:21,227 --> 02:28:23,104
...and are treated harshly.

1130
02:28:23,813 --> 02:28:24,897
How harshly?

1131
02:28:25,189 --> 02:28:28,067
More harshly than I hope you can imagine.

1132
02:28:28,859 --> 02:28:29,902
I see.

1133
02:28:30,069 --> 02:28:33,322
Our own prisoners are taken care of
until the British...

1134
02:28:33,531 --> 02:28:37,368
...can relieve us of them, according to the Code.

1135
02:28:37,577 --> 02:28:41,622
- I should like you to notice that.
- Yes, sir.

1136
02:28:42,623 --> 02:28:45,251
Is that the influence of Major Lawrence?

1137
02:28:45,710 --> 02:28:47,086
WW should you suppose?

1138
02:28:47,336 --> 02:28:49,755
It's just that I heard in Cairo that...

1139
02:28:49,964 --> 02:28:52,425
...Major Lawrence has a horror of bloodshed.

1140
02:28:52,633 --> 02:28:54,343
That is exactly so.

1141
02:28:54,552 --> 02:28:58,055
With Major Lawrence, mercy is a passion.

1142
02:28:58,389 --> 02:29:01,267
With me, it is merely good manners.

1143
02:29:01,434 --> 02:29:05,605
You may judge which motive is the more reliable.

1144
02:29:06,230 --> 02:29:09,609
- And now, perhaps...
- Oh, sure, sure.

1145
02:29:13,738 --> 02:29:15,406
Thank you, sir.

1146
02:29:15,615 --> 02:29:17,366
Can you manage the letter--?

1147
02:29:17,617 --> 02:29:20,453
I'll do everything I have said...

1148
02:29:20,661 --> 02:29:24,248
...if you will tell me truly
the nature of your interest...

1149
02:29:24,457 --> 02:29:26,876
...in my people and Major Lawrence.

1150
02:29:28,794 --> 02:29:31,922
It's very simple, sir. I'm looking for a hero.

1151
02:29:32,131 --> 02:29:34,634
Indeed. You do not seem a romantic man.

1152
02:29:34,967 --> 02:29:35,968
Oh, no.

1153
02:29:36,260 --> 02:29:40,014
But influential men back home believe
it's time for America...

1154
02:29:40,264 --> 02:29:42,975
...to lend her weight to
the struggle against Germany.

1155
02:29:43,184 --> 02:29:45,186
And Turkey.

1156
02:29:45,478 --> 02:29:49,815
I've been sent to find material to
show our people that this war is...

1157
02:29:50,316 --> 02:29:52,777
- Enjoyable?
- Hardly that, sir.

1158
02:29:52,985 --> 02:29:55,988
But to show it in its more adventurous aspects.

1159
02:29:56,197 --> 02:29:59,825
You look for a figure who
will draw your country towards war.

1160
02:30:01,410 --> 02:30:03,204
All right. Yes.

1161
02:30:03,829 --> 02:30:05,498
Lawrence is your man.

1162
02:30:45,371 --> 02:30:46,372
Stop!

1163
02:31:05,766 --> 02:31:07,393
Stop it!

1164
02:31:08,227 --> 02:31:09,603
Stop it!

1165
02:31:17,778 --> 02:31:19,280
Come on, men!

1166
02:32:28,474 --> 02:32:29,809
Lawrence!

1167
02:32:50,496 --> 02:32:52,498
Good God! God!

1168
02:33:38,878 --> 02:33:43,674
Jiminy! Never seen a man killed with a sword before.

1169
02:33:43,924 --> 02:33:46,176
Why don't you take a picture?

1170
02:33:46,552 --> 02:33:47,845
Wish I had.

1171
02:33:52,057 --> 02:33:54,268
How is it with thee, Lawrence?

1172
02:33:56,520 --> 02:33:57,563
Am I in this?

1173
02:33:58,564 --> 02:34:00,274
Did you take his picture?

1174
02:34:00,524 --> 02:34:01,775
Yeah.

1175
02:34:06,196 --> 02:34:10,367
You are using up your nine lives very quickly.

1176
02:34:12,870 --> 02:34:14,914
Charming company you keep.

1177
02:34:15,164 --> 02:34:16,415
Auda?

1178
02:34:17,207 --> 02:34:22,254
He's a bit old-fashioned. He thinks
these things will steal his virtue.

1179
02:34:22,588 --> 02:34:24,673
He thinks you're a kind of thief.

1180
02:34:24,924 --> 02:34:27,051
It's all right to take your picture?

1181
02:34:27,593 --> 02:34:29,094
- All right.
- Okay.

1182
02:34:29,303 --> 02:34:30,763
Just walk.

1183
02:35:30,990 --> 02:35:33,158
Major Lawrence!

1184
02:35:33,784 --> 02:35:36,495
Yes, sir, that's my baby.

1185
02:35:44,503 --> 02:35:47,131
This looting has got to stop!

1186
02:35:47,339 --> 02:35:48,674
It is customary.

1187
02:35:48,966 --> 02:35:52,511
It's theft. And theft makes thieves.

1188
02:35:52,803 --> 02:35:55,014
I would not say that to Auda.

1189
02:35:55,514 --> 02:35:58,308
- It is their payment, colonel.
- Payment.

1190
02:35:58,517 --> 02:36:01,311
Truly. Are not British soldiers paid?

1191
02:36:02,187 --> 02:36:05,524
- They don't go home when being paid.
- They are not free to.

1192
02:36:10,320 --> 02:36:14,408
Well, there's another lot you've seen the last of.

1193
02:36:14,700 --> 02:36:16,326
They'll come back.

1194
02:36:17,161 --> 02:36:20,080
He says they'll come back. Will they?

1195
02:36:20,372 --> 02:36:22,541
Not this year, Lawrence.

1196
02:36:23,292 --> 02:36:27,713
Look, Lawrence, how many men do
you think you'll have left? 200?

1197
02:36:27,921 --> 02:36:30,716
- Less.
- Well, then?

1198
02:36:31,050 --> 02:36:33,385
I said, they'll come back.

1199
02:36:34,094 --> 02:36:35,304
You badly mm?

1200
02:36:36,847 --> 02:36:38,599
Not hurt at all.

1201
02:36:38,849 --> 02:36:43,020
Didn't you know? They can only
kill me with a golden bullet.

1202
02:36:58,744 --> 02:37:02,581
It is for children. I have set myself to learn again.

1203
02:37:03,040 --> 02:37:06,585
- What are you learning from this?
- Politics.

1204
02:37:07,252 --> 02:37:11,757
You'll be a democracy in this country?
You gonna have a parliament?

1205
02:37:12,424 --> 02:37:14,718
I will tell you that when I have a country.

1206
02:37:16,970 --> 02:37:18,263
Did I answer well?

1207
02:37:18,639 --> 02:37:22,851
You answered without
saying anything. That's politics.

1208
02:37:24,103 --> 02:37:25,771
You learn quickly.

1209
02:37:27,106 --> 02:37:29,274
I have a good teacher.

1210
02:37:31,902 --> 02:37:33,278
Yeah.

1211
02:37:40,994 --> 02:37:42,871
- How's your hurt?
- Fine.

1212
02:37:43,080 --> 02:37:47,918
Before I return to the fleshpots,
which I shall be very glad to do...

1213
02:37:48,127 --> 02:37:51,171
...may I put two questions to you, straight?

1214
02:37:51,463 --> 02:37:54,800
I'd be interested to hear you put
a question straight.

1215
02:37:55,008 --> 02:37:56,176
One.

1216
02:37:56,635 --> 02:38:00,597
What, in your opinion, do these people
hope to gain from this war?

1217
02:38:00,889 --> 02:38:03,308
They hope to gain their freedom.

1218
02:38:04,601 --> 02:38:05,644
Freedom.

1219
02:38:06,937 --> 02:38:09,773
"They hope to gain their freedom."

1220
02:38:09,982 --> 02:38:13,652
- There's one born every minute.
- They're going to get it.

1221
02:38:14,444 --> 02:38:16,655
I'm going to give it to them.

1222
02:38:18,323 --> 02:38:24,163
- The second question?
- Well, I was going to ask...

1223
02:38:24,663 --> 02:38:28,625
...what is it that attracts you
personally to the desert?

1224
02:38:30,627 --> 02:38:32,671
It's clean.

1225
02:38:35,507 --> 02:38:37,050
Well, now...

1226
02:38:37,926 --> 02:38:40,053
...that's a very illuminating answer.

1227
02:38:40,429 --> 02:38:42,055
May I...

1228
02:38:42,681 --> 02:38:45,184
...take one farewell picture?

1229
02:38:46,018 --> 02:38:49,062
I gave Math Budad two lamps for it.

1230
02:38:49,354 --> 02:38:52,316
One clock for two lamps.

1231
02:38:52,816 --> 02:38:54,026
A fair bargain.

1232
02:38:54,234 --> 02:38:56,862
Fair? I robbed him.

1233
02:39:08,332 --> 02:39:09,833
Trash.

1234
02:39:10,959 --> 02:39:13,378
I must find something honourable.

1235
02:39:13,670 --> 02:39:15,214
Honourable?

1236
02:39:15,839 --> 02:39:19,593
The year is running out, Brighton.

1237
02:39:24,014 --> 02:39:27,017
I must find something honourable.

1238
02:41:58,543 --> 02:42:00,712
Now you may blow up my train.

1239
02:42:01,004 --> 02:42:02,714
And what will you do now?

1240
02:42:02,923 --> 02:42:07,511
Now I go home. They will carry my toys.

1241
02:42:08,261 --> 02:42:10,263
They will carry my toys too, see?

1242
02:42:10,680 --> 02:42:13,725
Major Lawrence will campaign this winter.

1243
02:42:14,017 --> 02:42:17,396
But you got what you wanted,
so you're going home, is that it'?

1244
02:42:17,562 --> 02:42:22,234
Of course. When Lawrence has got
what he wants, he will go home.

1245
02:42:22,442 --> 02:42:25,028
When you've got what you want, you will go home.

1246
02:42:25,237 --> 02:42:26,905
No, I shan't, Auda.

1247
02:42:27,697 --> 02:42:29,074
Then you are a fool.

1248
02:42:29,741 --> 02:42:32,744
Maybe. But I am not a deserter.

1249
02:42:33,870 --> 02:42:36,081
Give thanks to God, Brighton...

1250
02:42:36,289 --> 02:42:39,418
...that when he made you a fool,
he gave you a fool's face.

1251
02:42:40,669 --> 02:42:42,754
You are an impudent rascal.

1252
02:42:44,256 --> 02:42:48,593
I must go, Lawrence, before I
soil myself with a fool's blood.

1253
02:42:58,979 --> 02:43:00,730
Like talking to a brick wall.

1254
02:43:09,406 --> 02:43:12,075
So what will you do now? What can you do?

1255
02:43:12,742 --> 02:43:14,453
I'll go north.

1256
02:43:15,787 --> 02:43:17,622
That's what Allenby wants.

1257
02:43:17,831 --> 02:43:21,960
Allenby wanted the Arab army behind Deraa.

1258
02:43:22,210 --> 02:43:24,463
Then that's where I'll take it.

1259
02:43:25,464 --> 02:43:30,302
Tell Allenby to hurry up, or we'll be
in Deraa before he's in Jerusalem.

1260
02:43:30,594 --> 02:43:31,761
Won't we?

1261
02:44:04,252 --> 02:44:05,295
Train, Farraj.

1262
02:44:06,338 --> 02:44:07,839
Yeah, Lawrence.

1263
02:44:37,035 --> 02:44:38,870
Hide yourself, my friend.

1264
02:44:48,088 --> 02:44:49,548
Detonator.

1265
02:45:03,061 --> 02:45:04,729
All right, fetch another.

1266
02:45:04,938 --> 02:45:08,733
- Pardon, Lawrence. I put--
- Plenty of time. Fetch another.

1267
02:45:14,197 --> 02:45:15,574
Farraj?

1268
02:45:25,875 --> 02:45:28,920
- What happened?
- Detonator. A detonator!

1269
02:45:42,434 --> 02:45:44,936
He cannot ride, Lawrence. Look.

1270
02:45:54,446 --> 02:45:57,282
If they take him alive,
you know what they'll do to him.

1271
02:46:09,669 --> 02:46:12,130
Daud will be angry with you.

1272
02:46:13,131 --> 02:46:15,008
Salute him for me.

1273
02:46:34,819 --> 02:46:36,488
What will you do now?

1274
02:46:37,947 --> 02:46:39,449
Go north.

1275
02:46:39,658 --> 02:46:41,117
With twenty?

1276
02:46:41,993 --> 02:46:44,454
What would you recommend me to do?

1277
02:46:46,164 --> 02:46:48,166
What would you recommend?

1278
02:46:53,171 --> 02:46:55,507
He hasn't 1/10 so many men, sir.

1279
02:46:55,674 --> 02:46:57,550
He's lied, in fact.

1280
02:46:58,927 --> 02:47:02,639
Yes and no. He doesn't claim to have
done anything he hasn't done.

1281
02:47:02,847 --> 02:47:05,517
Then there is an Arab north army.

1282
02:47:07,018 --> 02:47:11,523
- No, sir, he has lied about that.
- Any idea why?

1283
02:47:11,940 --> 02:47:15,944
- It's his army, I suppose.
- It's Prince Feisal's army.

1284
02:47:17,362 --> 02:47:19,864
Do you think he's gone native, Harry?

1285
02:47:21,199 --> 02:47:22,826
No.

1286
02:47:23,868 --> 02:47:27,580
He would if he could, I think.

1287
02:47:29,374 --> 02:47:32,836
- Not my line of country.
- It doesn't matter. Just curious.

1288
02:47:33,545 --> 02:47:35,755
What matters is I believed it.

1289
02:47:36,047 --> 02:47:37,716
The Turks believe it.

1290
02:47:38,007 --> 02:47:41,386
They are offering 20,000 pounds for him.

1291
02:47:43,346 --> 02:47:45,098
Good heavens.

1292
02:47:45,557 --> 02:47:49,269
- Shouldn't say he had long to live.
- Whatever else, he's a brave man--

1293
02:47:49,519 --> 02:47:53,898
Surely, surely. If he's still going north
with 50 men, he doesn't lack guts.

1294
02:47:55,066 --> 02:47:57,861
I wonder if they'd offer that much for me.

1295
02:47:59,571 --> 02:48:03,700
What about next year? Will they still come back?

1296
02:48:03,908 --> 02:48:05,910
I wouldn't be surprised.

1297
02:48:06,119 --> 02:48:09,748
- They think he's a kind of prophet.
- They do or he does?

1298
02:48:25,388 --> 02:48:27,932
- Now may I speak?
- Yes.

1299
02:48:28,600 --> 02:48:31,770
One more failure and you will find yourself alone.

1300
02:48:33,146 --> 02:48:36,649
- I do not include myself.
- I do not include the others.

1301
02:48:36,941 --> 02:48:39,110
So say they love you.

1302
02:48:39,569 --> 02:48:42,071
The more reason to be thrifty with them.

1303
02:48:42,280 --> 02:48:45,408
Give them something to do
that can be done. But you, no.

1304
02:48:45,617 --> 02:48:47,786
They must move mountains, walk on water.

1305
02:48:48,036 --> 02:48:51,247
That's right. That's right.

1306
02:48:51,831 --> 02:48:54,334
Who are you to know what can be done?

1307
02:48:54,793 --> 02:48:58,463
If we'd done what you thought could
be done, we'd be in Yenbo now.

1308
02:48:59,047 --> 02:49:03,468
Whatever I ask them to do can
be done. They know that if you don't.

1309
02:49:05,595 --> 02:49:08,556
Do you think I'm just anybody?

1310
02:49:09,057 --> 02:49:10,433
Do you?

1311
02:49:13,645 --> 02:49:16,981
My friends, who will walk on water with me?

1312
02:49:20,443 --> 02:49:24,823
- Who will come with me into Deraa?
- Deraa is garrisoned.

1313
02:49:24,989 --> 02:49:27,116
Will you take 20 against 2000?

1314
02:49:27,325 --> 02:49:31,079
- I'll go by myself if I have to.
- Why?

1315
02:49:31,329 --> 02:49:33,164
Because I told the English generals...

1316
02:49:33,456 --> 02:49:37,085
...the Arab revolt would be in Deraa
when they'd be in Jerusalem.

1317
02:49:37,502 --> 02:49:39,629
Or perhaps you are here...

1318
02:49:40,213 --> 02:49:42,173
...for the English generals.

1319
02:49:44,217 --> 02:49:45,885
Who says this?

1320
02:49:46,177 --> 02:49:47,512
Rumour.

1321
02:49:48,847 --> 02:49:51,349
That is not an argument.

1322
02:49:51,599 --> 02:49:53,810
Oh, argument.

1323
02:49:54,018 --> 02:49:57,355
This afternoon I will take
the Arab revolt into Deraa...

1324
02:49:57,647 --> 02:50:00,024
...while the Arabs argue.

1325
02:50:01,985 --> 02:50:05,113
Can you pass for an Arab in an Arab town?

1326
02:50:05,488 --> 02:50:09,242
Yes. If one of you would lend me some dirty clothes.

1327
02:50:18,501 --> 02:50:19,711
It's madness.

1328
02:50:23,214 --> 02:50:25,008
What are you looking for?

1329
02:50:25,216 --> 02:50:27,719
Some way to announce myself.

1330
02:50:27,927 --> 02:50:29,888
Be patient with him, God.

1331
02:50:43,276 --> 02:50:47,572
- Do you not see how they look at you?
- Peace, Ali, I am invisible.

1332
02:50:47,739 --> 02:50:49,073
Halt!

1333
02:50:49,282 --> 02:50:50,533
Walk on.

1334
02:50:50,742 --> 02:50:52,577
- Halt!
- Walk on.

1335
02:50:53,745 --> 02:50:55,914
You and you.

1336
02:52:37,056 --> 02:52:38,141
You.

1337
02:52:54,699 --> 02:52:56,701
You have blue eyes.

1338
02:52:57,577 --> 02:53:01,831
- I say you have blue eyes.
- Yes, effendi.

1339
02:53:02,040 --> 02:53:05,334
- Are you Circassian?
- Yes, effendi.

1340
02:53:06,210 --> 02:53:07,795
How old are you?

1341
02:53:08,046 --> 02:53:11,049
Twenty-seven, effendi.

1342
02:53:11,299 --> 02:53:13,176
I think.

1343
02:53:13,384 --> 02:53:17,930
You look older. You have had a lot of experience.

1344
02:53:19,223 --> 02:53:21,309
It's an interesting face.

1345
02:53:25,938 --> 02:53:28,399
I am surrounded by cattle.

1346
02:53:29,067 --> 02:53:32,737
He wouldn't know an interesting face
from a sow's belly.

1347
02:53:33,738 --> 02:53:37,742
I have been is Deraa now for three and a half years.

1348
02:53:37,950 --> 02:53:42,371
If they posted me to the dark side
of the moon, I could not be more...

1349
02:53:42,580 --> 02:53:44,415
...isolated.

1350
02:53:46,334 --> 02:53:48,920
You haven't the least idea what I'm talking about.

1351
02:53:49,212 --> 02:53:50,922
No, effendi.

1352
02:53:53,466 --> 02:53:54,884
Have you?

1353
02:53:56,094 --> 02:53:57,386
No.

1354
02:53:58,096 --> 02:53:59,931
That would be too...

1355
02:54:00,139 --> 02:54:01,766
lucky

1356
02:54:26,249 --> 02:54:28,000
Where did you get that?

1357
02:54:29,919 --> 02:54:34,090
- It's old, effendi.
- No, this is recent.

1358
02:54:36,134 --> 02:54:38,386
- You are a deserter.
- No, effendi.

1359
02:54:38,636 --> 02:54:40,513
Yes, you are a deserter.

1360
02:54:41,639 --> 02:54:43,891
But from which army?

1361
02:54:46,394 --> 02:54:48,646
Not that it matters at all.

1362
02:54:48,980 --> 02:54:51,315
A man cannot be always in uniform.

1363
02:55:02,827 --> 02:55:04,787
Your skin is very fair.

1364
02:55:23,681 --> 02:55:24,974
Beat him.

1365
02:56:59,527 --> 02:57:00,903
To me!

1366
02:59:03,401 --> 02:59:04,944
Sleep.

1367
02:59:06,737 --> 02:59:08,280
Sleep.

1368
02:59:20,084 --> 02:59:21,419
Eat.

1369
02:59:27,258 --> 02:59:28,551
Eat.

1370
02:59:32,388 --> 02:59:35,224
You have a body, like other men.

1371
02:59:43,732 --> 02:59:44,775
Good.

1372
02:59:45,943 --> 02:59:47,736
Then sleep.

1373
03:00:01,250 --> 03:00:02,501
Better?

1374
03:00:03,127 --> 03:00:05,838
Much better. You were right.

1375
03:00:06,130 --> 03:00:08,299
Rest, rest. Can you not learn?

1376
03:00:09,258 --> 03:00:11,302
Oh, I've learned all right.

1377
03:00:17,099 --> 03:00:18,809
I'm going, Ali.

1378
03:00:19,852 --> 03:00:21,979
- Why?
- Why?

1379
03:00:23,272 --> 03:00:24,523
Heavens.

1380
03:00:24,815 --> 03:00:26,108
Why?

1381
03:00:26,984 --> 03:00:29,236
I've come to the end of myself, I suppose.

1382
03:00:29,487 --> 03:00:31,489
And the end of the Arab revolt?

1383
03:00:31,780 --> 03:00:34,867
I'm not the Arab revolt, Ali. I'm not even Arab.

1384
03:00:35,159 --> 03:00:38,162
A man can be whatever he wants. You said.

1385
03:00:38,454 --> 03:00:41,457
I'm sorry. I thought it was true.

1386
03:00:41,665 --> 03:00:43,626
You proved it.

1387
03:00:43,834 --> 03:00:46,003
Look, Ali. Look.

1388
03:00:46,295 --> 03:00:50,049
That's me. What colour is it? That's me.

1389
03:00:50,841 --> 03:00:53,177
And there's nothing I can do about it.

1390
03:00:53,344 --> 03:00:56,013
A man can do whatever he wants. You said.

1391
03:00:57,806 --> 03:00:59,266
He can...

1392
03:00:59,475 --> 03:01:02,353
...but he can't want what he wants.

1393
03:01:03,312 --> 03:01:06,524
This is the stuff that decides what he wants.

1394
03:01:09,360 --> 03:01:13,155
You may as well know. I would've told them anything.

1395
03:01:13,364 --> 03:01:17,326
I would've told them who I am.
I would've told them where you were.

1396
03:01:17,535 --> 03:01:20,329
- I tried to.
- So would any man.

1397
03:01:20,538 --> 03:01:24,041
Well, any man is what I am.

1398
03:01:25,042 --> 03:01:29,046
And I'm going back to Allenby to ask him for a job...

1399
03:01:29,338 --> 03:01:31,382
...that any man can do.

1400
03:01:31,674 --> 03:01:33,551
Allenby's in Jerusalem.

1401
03:01:33,842 --> 03:01:36,554
- I'll make easy stages.
- You?

1402
03:01:38,097 --> 03:01:41,559
Oh, yes. Easy stages.

1403
03:01:43,352 --> 03:01:47,898
Look, Ali, I think I see a way of being just...

1404
03:01:48,107 --> 03:01:49,733
...ordinarily...

1405
03:01:50,401 --> 03:01:51,819
happy

1406
03:01:55,614 --> 03:01:57,241
Can I take this?

1407
03:01:57,866 --> 03:01:59,743
It is not clean.

1408
03:02:00,035 --> 03:02:03,080
No, but it's warm.

1409
03:02:03,455 --> 03:02:04,748
And these...

1410
03:02:04,957 --> 03:02:08,919
...having led them here, have you no care for them?

1411
03:02:10,421 --> 03:02:15,593
You lead them. They're yours. Trust your own people.

1412
03:02:17,845 --> 03:02:20,055
And let me go back to mine.

1413
03:02:49,168 --> 03:02:52,296
- I say, don't forget those form fives.
- All right.

1414
03:02:58,135 --> 03:02:59,970
Mind if I join you?

1415
03:03:00,804 --> 03:03:02,473
Honoured, sir.

1416
03:03:04,808 --> 03:03:08,145
- Good to be back.
- We heard you were, sir.

1417
03:03:08,687 --> 03:03:11,273
- What's doing out there?
- Where?

1418
03:03:11,482 --> 03:03:13,776
- Arabia?
- Well, yes, sir.

1419
03:03:13,984 --> 03:03:17,321
Nothing much. Wrong time of year. What's doing here?

1420
03:03:17,613 --> 03:03:19,990
We're settling in. We built a squash court.

1421
03:03:20,199 --> 03:03:21,659
Jolly good.

1422
03:03:22,493 --> 03:03:26,497
Well, I have to go up there.

1423
03:03:27,498 --> 03:03:29,958
It's borrowed. Someone pinched mine.

1424
03:03:30,167 --> 03:03:31,919
Bloody wogs.

1425
03:03:33,337 --> 03:03:35,214
Yes, probably.

1426
03:03:35,964 --> 03:03:38,342
Jolly good about the squash court.

1427
03:03:41,053 --> 03:03:43,555
Lays it on a bit thick, doesn't he?

1428
03:03:56,819 --> 03:03:58,070
Morning.

1429
03:03:58,237 --> 03:04:00,030
- Good morning, sir.
- Good to be back.

1430
03:04:00,322 --> 03:04:03,367
- I'll believe you, sir.
- No, really it is.

1431
03:04:06,662 --> 03:04:07,996
Hello.

1432
03:04:08,580 --> 03:04:11,709
Morning. You're to go right in.

1433
03:04:23,721 --> 03:04:25,222
Lawrence.

1434
03:04:27,015 --> 03:04:29,560
Or is it Major Lawrence?

1435
03:04:30,227 --> 03:04:31,603
Sir.

1436
03:04:37,401 --> 03:04:39,236
Well, general, I will leave you.

1437
03:04:39,528 --> 03:04:42,406
Major Lawrence doubtless has reports to make...

1438
03:04:42,698 --> 03:04:46,493
...about my people and their weakness...

1439
03:04:46,744 --> 03:04:51,540
...and the need to keep them in the British interest.

1440
03:04:54,042 --> 03:04:57,588
And the French interest too.
We must not forget the French.

1441
03:04:57,755 --> 03:04:59,798
I told you, sir, no such treaty exists.

1442
03:05:00,090 --> 03:05:04,553
Yes, general, you have lied
most bravely, but not convincingly.

1443
03:05:04,762 --> 03:05:06,764
I know this treaty does exist.

1444
03:05:07,014 --> 03:05:08,932
Treaty, sir?

1445
03:05:11,101 --> 03:05:13,103
He does it better than you, general.

1446
03:05:13,395 --> 03:05:16,648
But then, of course, he is almost an Arab.

1447
03:05:30,829 --> 03:05:32,456
You really don't know?

1448
03:05:34,792 --> 03:05:36,794
Then what the devil's this?

1449
03:05:37,795 --> 03:05:41,673
It's my request for release from Arabia, sir.

1450
03:05:41,924 --> 03:05:43,300
For what reason?

1451
03:05:43,467 --> 03:05:45,803
You sure you haven't heard of the Sykes-Picot Treaty?

1452
03:05:45,969 --> 03:05:47,346
No.

1453
03:05:48,138 --> 03:05:51,308
- I can guess.
- Don't guess. Tell him.

1454
03:05:53,101 --> 03:05:54,478
Well, now...

1455
03:05:54,937 --> 03:05:57,981
Mr. Sykes is an English civil servant

1456
03:05:58,190 --> 03:06:01,318
Monsieur Picot is a French civil servant.

1457
03:06:01,485 --> 03:06:05,697
Mr. Sykes and Monsieur Picot met,
and they agreed that after the war...

1458
03:06:05,989 --> 03:06:09,326
...France and England should
share the Turkish Empire.

1459
03:06:09,618 --> 03:06:11,328
Including Arabia.

1460
03:06:11,620 --> 03:06:15,666
They signed an agreement, not a treaty, sir.

1461
03:06:15,874 --> 03:06:19,002
An agreement to that effect.

1462
03:06:19,670 --> 03:06:23,215
There may be honour among thieves,
but there's none in politicians.

1463
03:06:23,507 --> 03:06:26,218
And let's have no displays of indignation.

1464
03:06:26,510 --> 03:06:29,638
You may not have known,
but you certainly had suspicions.

1465
03:06:30,138 --> 03:06:33,475
If we've told lies, you've told half-lies.

1466
03:06:33,684 --> 03:06:38,146
And a man who tells lies, like me,
merely hides the truth.

1467
03:06:38,355 --> 03:06:43,110
But a man who tells half-lies
has forgotten where he put it.

1468
03:06:43,694 --> 03:06:46,989
The truth is I'm an ordinary man.

1469
03:06:47,489 --> 03:06:49,867
You might have told me that, Dryden.

1470
03:06:51,368 --> 03:06:53,370
And I want an ordinary job, sir

1471
03:06:53,620 --> 03:06:55,914
That's my reason for resigning.

1472
03:06:57,207 --> 03:06:58,876
It's personal.

1473
03:06:59,042 --> 03:07:01,253
- Personal?
- Yes, sir.

1474
03:07:01,545 --> 03:07:04,631
Personal? You're a serving officer in the field.

1475
03:07:04,882 --> 03:07:08,218
And as it happens, a damned
important one. Are you mad?

1476
03:07:08,510 --> 03:07:11,722
No, and if you don't mind, I'd rather not go mad.

1477
03:07:11,930 --> 03:07:14,016
That's my reason too.

1478
03:07:14,182 --> 03:07:19,229
Look, I'm making my big push
on Damascus the 16th of next month...

1479
03:07:19,396 --> 03:07:21,398
...and you are part of it.

1480
03:07:21,899 --> 03:07:25,569
Can you understand that? You're
an important part of the big push!

1481
03:07:25,777 --> 03:07:29,698
I don't want to be part of your big push!

1482
03:07:30,407 --> 03:07:32,451
What about your Arab friends?

1483
03:07:32,701 --> 03:07:36,538
I have no Arab friends! I don't want Arab friends!

1484
03:07:36,747 --> 03:07:38,916
What in hell do you want, Lawrence?

1485
03:07:39,166 --> 03:07:44,254
I've told you, I just want
my ration of common humanity.

1486
03:07:44,546 --> 03:07:47,424
- Lawrence.
- Yes?

1487
03:07:50,177 --> 03:07:52,930
Nothing. Sorry I interrupted, sir.

1488
03:07:53,180 --> 03:07:55,265
That's all right. Thank you, Mr. Dryden.

1489
03:07:55,557 --> 03:07:57,267
Thank you, sir.

1490
03:07:58,310 --> 03:08:00,562
Why don't we...?

1491
03:08:03,106 --> 03:08:04,942
There's blood on your back.

1492
03:08:06,234 --> 03:08:09,321
- Do you want a doctor?
- No.

1493
03:08:10,489 --> 03:08:12,699
Tell me what happened.

1494
03:08:17,621 --> 03:08:19,790
Say, what goes on in there?

1495
03:08:20,582 --> 03:08:22,459
- Nothing.
- Oh, come on!

1496
03:08:22,709 --> 03:08:26,129
- No, really. Nothing at all.
- Is the man in trouble?

1497
03:08:26,338 --> 03:08:30,300
I expect so. We all have troubles.
Life's a vale of troubles.

1498
03:08:30,592 --> 03:08:34,471
Let me know if the man's in trouble.
I've got a claim in that man.

1499
03:08:34,721 --> 03:08:38,141
- What claim?
- I've made that boy a hero.

1500
03:08:38,350 --> 03:08:41,103
When the war's over, he can be anything he wants.

1501
03:08:41,311 --> 03:08:45,649
Yes. Well, at the moment
he wants to be somebody else.

1502
03:08:46,149 --> 03:08:48,986
Will you kindly allow me to pass?

1503
03:08:49,528 --> 03:08:51,989
Walk away, Dryden, walk away.

1504
03:08:52,280 --> 03:08:55,033
Always walking away, aren't you?

1505
03:08:55,325 --> 03:08:56,827
Well, I'll tell you.

1506
03:08:57,035 --> 03:08:59,997
It's a clash of temperament that's going on in there.

1507
03:09:00,247 --> 03:09:03,166
Inevitably, one of them's half-mad...

1508
03:09:03,375 --> 03:09:06,169
...and the other, wholly unscrupulous.

1509
03:09:07,004 --> 03:09:10,007
I believe your name will be a household word...

1510
03:09:10,507 --> 03:09:14,177
...when you'd have to go to the
war museum to find who Allenby was.

1511
03:09:15,053 --> 03:09:17,973
You're the most extraordinary man I ever met.

1512
03:09:18,557 --> 03:09:20,058
Leave me alone.

1513
03:09:20,350 --> 03:09:22,853
- Leave me alone.
- That's a feeble thing to say.

1514
03:09:23,061 --> 03:09:25,689
- I know I'm not ordinary.
- That's not what I'm saying.

1515
03:09:25,897 --> 03:09:28,692
All right, I'm extraordinary.

1516
03:09:30,694 --> 03:09:31,778
What of it'?

1517
03:09:32,154 --> 03:09:34,865
Not many people have a destiny, Lawrence.

1518
03:09:35,032 --> 03:09:38,201
It's a terrible thing
for a man to flunk it if he has.

1519
03:09:38,368 --> 03:09:40,537
Are you speaking from experience?

1520
03:09:40,829 --> 03:09:42,205
No.

1521
03:09:42,372 --> 03:09:44,207
You're guessing, then.

1522
03:09:45,375 --> 03:09:46,710
Suppose you're wrong.

1523
03:09:47,002 --> 03:09:50,047
Why suppose that? We both know I'm right.

1524
03:09:50,881 --> 03:09:53,842
- Yes. I said, yes.
- After all--

1525
03:09:56,386 --> 03:09:58,430
- The 16th?
- Can you do it?

1526
03:09:58,597 --> 03:10:00,724
I'll give you a lot of money.

1527
03:10:01,016 --> 03:10:03,852
- Artillery?
- I can't.

1528
03:10:05,062 --> 03:10:08,023
They won't be coming for money, not the best of them.

1529
03:10:08,315 --> 03:10:10,525
They'll be coming for Damascus.

1530
03:10:11,568 --> 03:10:13,612
Which I'm going to give them.

1531
03:10:14,362 --> 03:10:16,114
That's all I want.

1532
03:10:17,199 --> 03:10:20,077
All you want is someone
holding down the Turkish Right.

1533
03:10:20,327 --> 03:10:24,581
But I'm going to give them Damascus.
We'll get there before you do.

1534
03:10:24,873 --> 03:10:28,043
And when we've got it, we'll keep it.

1535
03:10:28,251 --> 03:10:30,629
Tell the politicians to burn their paper now.

1536
03:10:30,879 --> 03:10:32,214
Fair enough.

1537
03:10:32,714 --> 03:10:35,592
Fair? What's fair got to do with it?

1538
03:10:36,343 --> 03:10:38,261
It's going to happen.

1539
03:10:38,929 --> 03:10:41,056
I shall want quite a lot of money.

1540
03:10:41,765 --> 03:10:43,433
All there is.

1541
03:10:43,934 --> 03:10:45,560
Not that much.

1542
03:10:48,855 --> 03:10:51,608
The best of them won't come for money.

1543
03:10:53,485 --> 03:10:54,903
They'll come for me.

1544
03:11:13,380 --> 03:11:14,631
No pictures!

1545
03:11:14,923 --> 03:11:17,259
It's not for you, it's for Major Lawrence.

1546
03:11:17,467 --> 03:11:21,638
He doesn't mind having his picture
taken. He doesn't mind at all.

1547
03:11:21,888 --> 03:11:24,141
Well, there's only one Lawrence.

1548
03:11:28,603 --> 03:11:31,189
Have you met Major Lawrence since he's come back?

1549
03:11:31,481 --> 03:11:32,774
Yes.

1550
03:11:32,941 --> 03:11:35,318
- Changed, hasn't he?
- No.

1551
03:11:35,485 --> 03:11:38,405
Oh, I'd say he had. Different man, I'd say.

1552
03:11:43,160 --> 03:11:46,830
What did that Turkish general do to him in Deraa?

1553
03:11:47,539 --> 03:11:52,335
He was the same man after Deraa.
The same man, humbled.

1554
03:11:54,004 --> 03:11:56,548
What did the English general do to him in Jerusalem?

1555
03:11:56,840 --> 03:11:58,508
Search me. Ask Lawrence.

1556
03:11:58,717 --> 03:12:00,677
- I did.
- What did he say?

1557
03:12:00,927 --> 03:12:02,512
He laughed.

1558
03:12:03,013 --> 03:12:05,640
He told me to gather the Harith here.

1559
03:12:06,183 --> 03:12:07,726
He offered me money.

1560
03:12:08,018 --> 03:12:09,561
Did you take it?

1561
03:12:10,353 --> 03:12:12,981
No. But many did.

1562
03:12:50,727 --> 03:12:53,772
- What is this?
- This is my bodyguard.

1563
03:12:54,481 --> 03:12:57,108
There is not a man without a price on his head.

1564
03:12:57,400 --> 03:13:01,029
- There's a price on my head too.
- But these are murderers.

1565
03:13:01,238 --> 03:13:03,240
The sheiks will hang these men.

1566
03:13:03,490 --> 03:13:05,242
These men are mine.

1567
03:13:05,742 --> 03:13:10,080
Lawrence, these things know
nothing of the Arab revolt.

1568
03:13:10,413 --> 03:13:13,875
- You, Ghitan of Aleppo.
- Sherif?

1569
03:13:14,084 --> 03:13:17,087
- Where do we ride?
- Damascus, sherif.

1570
03:13:17,295 --> 03:13:19,214
Aye, but for what?

1571
03:13:19,422 --> 03:13:21,591
Sherif, for Lawrence.

1572
03:13:24,719 --> 03:13:28,056
- You have bought these things.
- I bought half the men here, Ali.

1573
03:13:28,265 --> 03:13:31,059
That is different. These are not ordinary men.

1574
03:13:31,268 --> 03:13:34,271
I don't want ordinary men. Hut!

1575
03:13:38,275 --> 03:13:40,110
Damascus!

1576
03:13:40,318 --> 03:13:42,445
Damascus! Damascus!

1577
03:13:42,654 --> 03:13:45,740
Damascus! Damascus!

1578
03:14:19,607 --> 03:14:23,153
Very well, gentlemen. The cavalry's
gone through Mazril and Deraa.

1579
03:14:23,445 --> 03:14:27,073
Very good, by the way.
Very good indeed. Now your turn.

1580
03:14:27,282 --> 03:14:30,952
If the enemy's retreating in
any order, which we'll assume--

1581
03:14:31,119 --> 03:14:32,162
Certainly.

1582
03:14:32,329 --> 03:14:34,080
He can't be far from Mallud...

1583
03:14:34,706 --> 03:14:39,002
...in which case I can have him
within range by 0900 hours tomorrow.

1584
03:14:39,294 --> 03:14:41,296
Splendid. Philip.

1585
03:14:41,671 --> 03:14:44,341
These are the last infantry supports going up now.

1586
03:14:44,632 --> 03:14:48,178
But Mallud, we could have
the fusiliers there by Wednesday.

1587
03:14:48,845 --> 03:14:52,307
That'll do for now. The guns are what matter.

1588
03:14:52,474 --> 03:14:53,725
Any questions?

1589
03:14:54,184 --> 03:14:58,313
This Arab army on the right, sir,
what's it consist of?

1590
03:14:58,813 --> 03:15:01,024
Irregular cavalry, sir. About 2000.

1591
03:15:01,191 --> 03:15:03,109
Where are they now?

1592
03:15:03,818 --> 03:15:08,698
- Can only know by being with them.
- Then get with them. I want to know.

1593
03:15:09,032 --> 03:15:11,326
Pound them, Charley.

1594
03:15:11,910 --> 03:15:13,328
Pound them.

1595
03:15:23,880 --> 03:15:26,716
God help the men who lie under that.

1596
03:15:26,925 --> 03:15:28,551
They're Turks.

1597
03:15:28,760 --> 03:15:30,428
God help them.

1598
03:16:13,179 --> 03:16:16,933
Well, he's got the bit between his teeth all right.

1599
03:16:17,183 --> 03:16:18,476
Cocky?

1600
03:16:18,685 --> 03:16:20,437
More than cocky, sir.

1601
03:16:20,728 --> 03:16:24,065
He's got the bit between his teeth all right.

1602
03:16:24,274 --> 03:16:27,777
I tell you, sir, I think
he'll get to Damascus before we do.

1603
03:16:28,445 --> 03:16:30,280
- Unless...
- Unless?

1604
03:16:30,447 --> 03:16:34,325
Well, there's a Turkish column
in front of him, out of Mazril.

1605
03:16:34,617 --> 03:16:37,579
- What do the Turks have in Mazril?
- A brigade, sir.

1606
03:16:40,582 --> 03:16:42,792
I wonder where they are now.

1607
03:18:24,852 --> 03:18:26,020
No prisoners.

1608
03:18:29,524 --> 03:18:31,609
Damascus, Lawrence.

1609
03:18:41,536 --> 03:18:44,372
Lawrence, not this.

1610
03:18:45,081 --> 03:18:49,085
Go round. Damascus, Lawrence, Damascus.

1611
03:18:49,836 --> 03:18:51,421
No prisoners.

1612
03:19:01,556 --> 03:19:03,141
This was Talaal's village.

1613
03:19:07,395 --> 03:19:09,397
Talaal!

1614
03:19:19,407 --> 03:19:20,617
Talaal!

1615
03:19:29,667 --> 03:19:31,669
No prisoners!

1616
03:19:32,128 --> 03:19:33,254
No prisoners!

1617
03:19:45,141 --> 03:19:46,434
God.

1618
03:19:50,188 --> 03:19:51,522
God.

1619
03:19:53,441 --> 03:19:54,817
God!

1620
03:22:12,121 --> 03:22:15,291
Enough. Enough! Make them stop!

1621
03:23:52,680 --> 03:23:53,890
Major!

1622
03:23:54,557 --> 03:23:56,225
Major Lawrence!

1623
03:24:01,898 --> 03:24:03,524
Jesus wept.

1624
03:24:19,081 --> 03:24:20,374
Jesus wept.

1625
03:24:22,251 --> 03:24:24,295
Does it surprise you, Mr. Bentley?

1626
03:24:24,921 --> 03:24:27,715
Surely you know the Arabs are a barbarous people.

1627
03:24:27,924 --> 03:24:29,759
Barbarous and cruel.

1628
03:24:30,593 --> 03:24:32,470
Who but they?

1629
03:24:32,887 --> 03:24:34,221
Who but they?

1630
03:24:36,557 --> 03:24:38,935
Oh, you rotten man.

1631
03:24:39,977 --> 03:24:44,398
Here, let me take your rotten bloody picture.

1632
03:24:46,484 --> 03:24:48,611
For the rotten bloody newspapers.

1633
03:25:15,096 --> 03:25:18,599
These were cut last night, Lawrence, in Damascus.

1634
03:25:19,016 --> 03:25:20,726
Damascus!

1635
03:25:20,935 --> 03:25:22,812
Take them to Sherif Ali.

1636
03:25:23,020 --> 03:25:24,438
Tell him.

1637
03:25:25,439 --> 03:25:27,149
Remind him.

1638
03:25:27,984 --> 03:25:31,112
- Is Allenby in Damascus?
- Near.

1639
03:25:31,946 --> 03:25:34,240
Tell Sherif Ali that.

1640
03:25:35,491 --> 03:25:37,326
They are not ripe.

1641
03:25:43,290 --> 03:25:45,334
General salute!

1642
03:25:45,501 --> 03:25:50,214
Present arms!

1643
03:26:02,143 --> 03:26:04,020
Port arms!

1644
03:26:06,814 --> 03:26:08,691
Lawrence is behind it, sir.

1645
03:26:08,899 --> 03:26:11,777
The whole town is plastered with the Arab flag.

1646
03:26:18,075 --> 03:26:19,869
- When?
- A day and a night, sir.

1647
03:26:20,077 --> 03:26:21,996
They've been here a day and a night.

1648
03:26:22,204 --> 03:26:24,707
They've occupied the town. They've done it.

1649
03:26:24,999 --> 03:26:28,878
He's set up his own headquarters in the town hall.

1650
03:26:29,795 --> 03:26:31,589
What else beside the town hall?

1651
03:26:31,881 --> 03:26:34,717
Telephone exchange, post office, powerhouse...

1652
03:26:35,009 --> 03:26:37,386
...hospitals, fire station. Everything, sir.

1653
03:26:37,595 --> 03:26:40,556
They call themselves the Arab National Council...

1654
03:26:40,723 --> 03:26:42,391
...and they're in the town hall.

1655
03:26:42,683 --> 03:26:45,561
Well, they're your pigeon, Harry.

1656
03:26:47,229 --> 03:26:48,731
What should we do about it?

1657
03:26:48,939 --> 03:26:51,358
Get them out of it, sir, quick time.

1658
03:26:52,234 --> 03:26:54,070
How about that, Dryden?

1659
03:26:55,863 --> 03:26:58,574
Not unless you want a full-scale rising.

1660
03:26:59,366 --> 03:27:02,411
- What, then?
- When will Feisal be in Damascus?

1661
03:27:02,578 --> 03:27:04,622
By special train in two days' time.

1662
03:27:04,914 --> 03:27:06,207
Two days.

1663
03:27:06,373 --> 03:27:09,752
Two days is what you asked for.
I can't keep him out any longer.

1664
03:27:10,044 --> 03:27:12,088
- Isn't it enough?
- Yes.

1665
03:27:12,254 --> 03:27:15,716
- Ample, I should think.
- We can't just do nothing.

1666
03:27:15,925 --> 03:27:19,595
Why not? It's usually best.
Get us something to drink, Tracey.

1667
03:27:19,845 --> 03:27:24,100
And Tracey, all troops to remain
quartered until further orders.

1668
03:27:24,475 --> 03:27:26,102
Does that apply to technical units?

1669
03:27:26,393 --> 03:27:28,479
Technical units particularly.

1670
03:27:28,771 --> 03:27:30,106
Yes, sir.

1671
03:27:30,648 --> 03:27:32,108
Medicals too, sir?

1672
03:27:32,358 --> 03:27:34,568
I'm afraid so, Harry.

1673
03:27:34,902 --> 03:27:36,612
Medicals too.

1674
03:28:16,986 --> 03:28:18,529
We here...

1675
03:28:18,779 --> 03:28:21,657
...are neither Harith nor Howeitat...

1676
03:28:21,824 --> 03:28:24,994
...nor any other tribe, but Arabs...

1677
03:28:25,327 --> 03:28:28,789
...of the Arab Council, acting for Prince Feisal.

1678
03:28:28,998 --> 03:28:31,041
He insulted me.

1679
03:28:32,168 --> 03:28:36,297
Sherif Ali said that the telephones
are in the care of the Howeitat...

1680
03:28:36,505 --> 03:28:39,341
...and they have ceased to work. And this is true.

1681
03:28:39,842 --> 03:28:43,554
They will not work because
they are given no electricity.

1682
03:28:43,804 --> 03:28:47,349
The electricity is in the care of the Harith.

1683
03:28:49,810 --> 03:28:52,146
If you answer, there will be bloodshed.

1684
03:28:53,022 --> 03:28:56,525
You speak to me of bloodshed?

1685
03:28:59,236 --> 03:29:03,199
I ask pardon of Auda Abu Tayi.

1686
03:29:03,449 --> 03:29:04,992
Humbly?

1687
03:29:05,159 --> 03:29:06,535
Humbly, Harith?

1688
03:29:06,827 --> 03:29:08,829
Yes, humbly.

1689
03:29:09,205 --> 03:29:11,332
This is a new trick.

1690
03:29:12,333 --> 03:29:14,001
Why is there no electricity?

1691
03:29:14,960 --> 03:29:17,713
I have been to that electrical house, Lawrence.

1692
03:29:17,963 --> 03:29:20,841
There are three large machines.

1693
03:29:21,050 --> 03:29:23,385
He means generators!

1694
03:29:23,886 --> 03:29:25,054
So.

1695
03:29:25,512 --> 03:29:27,223
One of them is burning.

1696
03:29:27,473 --> 03:29:30,559
They are of an incredible size, but helpless.

1697
03:29:30,893 --> 03:29:33,604
It is so of all machines.

1698
03:29:33,854 --> 03:29:37,858
Let them burn. What need of telephones?

1699
03:29:40,527 --> 03:29:43,697
- The need is absolute.
- Then we need English engineers.

1700
03:29:43,906 --> 03:29:47,576
No. Take English engineers
and you take English government.

1701
03:29:47,868 --> 03:29:49,078
Take--

1702
03:29:53,207 --> 03:29:54,416
Fire has broken out.

1703
03:29:54,625 --> 03:29:56,210
- Where?
- The Jinsibi district.

1704
03:29:56,418 --> 03:29:59,296
- It is not a district that matters.
- It will spread!

1705
03:29:59,588 --> 03:30:01,257
Then use the fire brigade!

1706
03:30:01,548 --> 03:30:04,426
We have tried, but there is no force in the water.

1707
03:30:04,635 --> 03:30:06,136
Then you must carry it.

1708
03:30:06,428 --> 03:30:10,766
- The Ruala do not carry water.
- What else are they good for?

1709
03:30:23,070 --> 03:30:26,615
We will hear petitions this afternoon.

1710
03:30:29,451 --> 03:30:31,161
This afternoon!

1711
03:30:54,935 --> 03:30:58,939
- I'll take this up after the war.
- Surely we should do something, sir.

1712
03:30:59,148 --> 03:31:03,110
- It's an old man's sport.
- Are you an old man, sir?

1713
03:31:03,319 --> 03:31:06,196
All I can say is, sir, it's a heavy responsibility.

1714
03:31:07,656 --> 03:31:08,991
Sorry, sir.

1715
03:31:11,201 --> 03:31:12,870
Maybe it's the bulb.

1716
03:31:17,583 --> 03:31:18,709
No, sir.

1717
03:31:19,168 --> 03:31:20,836
It's the power.

1718
03:31:36,018 --> 03:31:37,394
They're leaving.

1719
03:31:38,103 --> 03:31:39,813
That's it, then.

1720
03:31:40,314 --> 03:31:42,399
Marvellous-looking beggars, aren't they?

1721
03:32:03,629 --> 03:32:06,507
Leave it, Lawrence. Come with me.

1722
03:32:06,757 --> 03:32:08,759
- Come where?
- Back.

1723
03:32:13,222 --> 03:32:15,432
I know your heart.

1724
03:32:23,899 --> 03:32:25,526
What is it?

1725
03:32:26,527 --> 03:32:28,195
Is it this?

1726
03:32:30,906 --> 03:32:34,034
I tell you, this is nothing.

1727
03:32:47,214 --> 03:32:48,882
Is it the blood?

1728
03:32:49,675 --> 03:32:52,761
The desert has dried up more blood
than you could think of.

1729
03:32:54,304 --> 03:32:58,684
I pray that I may never see the desert again.

1730
03:32:59,768 --> 03:33:01,061
Hear me, God.

1731
03:33:02,771 --> 03:33:06,608
You will come. There is only the desert for you.

1732
03:33:23,459 --> 03:33:24,751
What about you?

1733
03:33:25,752 --> 03:33:29,339
No, I shall stay here and learn politics.

1734
03:33:31,842 --> 03:33:33,260
A very low occupation.

1735
03:33:33,760 --> 03:33:36,805
I had not thought of it when I met you.

1736
03:33:45,772 --> 03:33:48,650
You have tried very hard to give us Damascus.

1737
03:33:48,859 --> 03:33:50,777
It's what I came for.

1738
03:33:54,281 --> 03:33:55,532
And then...

1739
03:33:57,951 --> 03:33:59,328
...it would be something.

1740
03:33:59,536 --> 03:34:00,787
Yes.

1741
03:34:01,455 --> 03:34:02,664
Much.

1742
03:34:21,683 --> 03:34:24,144
- He is your friend?
- Take your hand away.

1743
03:34:24,353 --> 03:34:25,646
- You love him.
- I fear him.

1744
03:34:25,854 --> 03:34:27,689
Then why do you weep?

1745
03:34:28,023 --> 03:34:30,192
If I fear him, who love him...

1746
03:34:30,359 --> 03:34:33,320
...how must he fear himself, who hates himself?

1747
03:34:33,695 --> 03:34:36,823
Take your hand away, Howeitat!

1748
03:34:39,201 --> 03:34:42,538
So you are not yet entirely politician.

1749
03:34:42,704 --> 03:34:43,789
Not yet.

1750
03:34:44,039 --> 03:34:48,377
Well, these are new tricks, and I am an old dog.

1751
03:34:48,919 --> 03:34:50,837
And Allah be thanked.

1752
03:34:51,338 --> 03:34:52,714
I'll tell thee what...

1753
03:34:53,006 --> 03:34:56,343
...being an Arab will be thornier
than you suppose, Harith.

1754
03:35:17,823 --> 03:35:21,118
In all my years, I've never seen anything like it.

1755
03:35:21,410 --> 03:35:24,246
It comes within the jurisdiction of the Arab Council.

1756
03:35:24,454 --> 03:35:28,834
Under the circumstances, I think
I must take over. Immediately.

1757
03:35:29,084 --> 03:35:32,087
Under any circumstances at all,
you must obey your orders.

1758
03:35:32,379 --> 03:35:33,922
No, sir, I will not.

1759
03:35:34,881 --> 03:35:36,466
Control yourself.

1760
03:35:36,967 --> 03:35:40,095
Now, go over to the town hall and see what they say.

1761
03:35:41,054 --> 03:35:43,348
We did what we could in the civic hospitals.

1762
03:35:43,557 --> 03:35:46,393
But you forgot the Turkish Military Hospital.

1763
03:35:46,768 --> 03:35:51,231
It has 600 beds. There are
about 2000 Turkish wounded in it.

1764
03:35:51,898 --> 03:35:56,486
All of whom are the responsibility
of your precious Arab Council.

1765
03:36:03,243 --> 03:36:04,661
What's it like?

1766
03:37:21,530 --> 03:37:23,573
This is outrageous!

1767
03:37:24,700 --> 03:37:26,576
Outrageous!

1768
03:37:29,830 --> 03:37:31,540
Outrageous!

1769
03:37:32,666 --> 03:37:34,876
You filthy little wog!

1770
03:37:45,387 --> 03:37:49,474
My friend Lawrence, if I may call him that.

1771
03:37:49,725 --> 03:37:52,185
"My friend Lawrence."

1772
03:37:52,394 --> 03:37:57,023
How many men will claim the right
to use that phrase? How proudly.

1773
03:37:57,232 --> 03:37:59,901
He longs for the greenness of his native land.

1774
03:38:00,110 --> 03:38:05,240
He pines for the Gothic cottages
of Surrey, is it not?

1775
03:38:05,490 --> 03:38:09,077
Already in imagination, he catches trout...

1776
03:38:09,369 --> 03:38:12,873
...and all the activities of the English gentleman.

1777
03:38:13,081 --> 03:38:16,585
That's me you're describing, sir,
not Colonel Lawrence.

1778
03:38:17,502 --> 03:38:19,713
You're promoted colonel.

1779
03:38:19,921 --> 03:38:22,382
Yes. What for?

1780
03:38:22,591 --> 03:38:25,761
Take the honour, colonel. Be a little kind.

1781
03:38:26,011 --> 03:38:30,098
As a colonel, you'll have a cabin
to yourself on the boat home.

1782
03:38:30,724 --> 03:38:33,018
Then, thank you.

1783
03:38:37,230 --> 03:38:38,440
Well, then...

1784
03:38:39,065 --> 03:38:40,108
...Godspeed.

1785
03:38:40,609 --> 03:38:44,529
There's nothing further here for a warrior.

1786
03:38:44,780 --> 03:38:48,909
We drive bargains. Old men's work.

1787
03:38:49,117 --> 03:38:51,453
Young men make wars, and the virtues of war...

1788
03:38:51,620 --> 03:38:53,538
...are the virtues of young men.

1789
03:38:53,789 --> 03:38:57,250
Courage and hope for the future.

1790
03:38:57,459 --> 03:39:00,128
Then old men make the peace.

1791
03:39:01,254 --> 03:39:04,132
And the vices of peace are the vices of old men.

1792
03:39:04,341 --> 03:39:06,802
Mistrust and caution.

1793
03:39:07,761 --> 03:39:09,596
It must be so.

1794
03:39:25,987 --> 03:39:30,617
What I owe you is beyond evaluation.

1795
03:39:40,335 --> 03:39:44,005
The powerhouse, the telephone
exchange, these I concede.

1796
03:39:44,297 --> 03:39:46,007
The pumping plant I must retain.

1797
03:39:46,216 --> 03:39:48,802
If you retain it, there will be no water.

1798
03:39:49,010 --> 03:39:52,722
- I shall be glad of assistance.
- Then you must bring down your flag.

1799
03:39:53,014 --> 03:39:56,852
I shall not, and if your men
attempt it, my men will resist it.

1800
03:39:57,143 --> 03:39:58,812
- Have you men?
- Enough for that.

1801
03:39:59,020 --> 03:40:01,398
It's a thing that makes an ugly incident.

1802
03:40:01,731 --> 03:40:03,608
I'm sure your government...

1803
03:40:03,859 --> 03:40:07,696
...does not wish to appear at the peace
conference as an aggressor.

1804
03:40:09,990 --> 03:40:11,491
I say!

1805
03:40:12,868 --> 03:40:14,828
It's Lawrence, isn't it?

1806
03:40:17,163 --> 03:40:19,374
May I shake your hand, sir?

1807
03:40:20,542 --> 03:40:23,169
Just want to be able to say I'd done it, sir.

1808
03:40:26,756 --> 03:40:29,009
Haven't we met before?

1809
03:40:29,217 --> 03:40:30,844
Don't think so, sir.

1810
03:40:31,052 --> 03:40:33,763
No, no, sir, I should remember that.

1811
03:40:39,019 --> 03:40:43,189
It is widely known the Arab Council
took power in my name.

1812
03:40:43,398 --> 03:40:45,400
They have no power. It's illusory.

1813
03:40:45,650 --> 03:40:48,069
Illusions can be very powerful.

1814
03:40:48,445 --> 03:40:50,071
Particularly...

1815
03:40:50,947 --> 03:40:53,575
...when they take this form.

1816
03:40:55,744 --> 03:40:58,747
The world is delighted at the picture of Damascus...

1817
03:40:58,955 --> 03:41:00,916
...liberated by the Arab army.

1818
03:41:01,458 --> 03:41:04,544
Led, may I remind you, by a British-serving officer.

1819
03:41:05,086 --> 03:41:10,091
Ah, yes. But then Lawrence is a sword with two edges.

1820
03:41:10,383 --> 03:41:13,428
We are equally glad to be rid of him, are we not?

1821
03:41:17,057 --> 03:41:19,267
I thought I was a hard man, sir.

1822
03:41:20,101 --> 03:41:22,395
You are merely a general.

1823
03:41:24,940 --> 03:41:26,441
I must be a king.

1824
03:41:29,444 --> 03:41:31,321
Excuse me, sir.

1825
03:41:45,961 --> 03:41:47,253
Well?

1826
03:41:48,129 --> 03:41:49,506
Well...

1827
03:41:49,965 --> 03:41:52,842
...it seems we're to have a British waterworks...

1828
03:41:53,093 --> 03:41:55,303
...with an Arab flag on it.

1829
03:41:55,512 --> 03:41:57,472
Do you think it was worth it?

1830
03:41:57,639 --> 03:42:00,308
Not my business. Thank God I'm a soldier.

1831
03:42:00,642 --> 03:42:01,810
Yes, sir.

1832
03:42:02,102 --> 03:42:03,728
So you keep saying.

1833
03:42:03,937 --> 03:42:05,522
You, I suspect...

1834
03:42:06,022 --> 03:42:09,943
...are chief architect of this compromise.

1835
03:42:10,360 --> 03:42:13,488
- What do you think?
- Me, Your Highness?

1836
03:42:14,155 --> 03:42:18,451
On the whole, I wish I'd stayed in Tunbridge Wells.

1837
03:42:56,489 --> 03:42:59,534
Well, sir. Going home.

1838
03:43:01,870 --> 03:43:03,538
Home, sir.
